Question

Near the end of a marathon race, the first two runners are separated by a distance of 35. 0 m. The front runner has a velocity of 3. 25 m/s , and the second runner has a velocity of 4. 75 m/s. What is the magnitude of the velocity of the second runner relative to the first?.

Answer 1

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

1st = 3.25

2nd = 4.75

4.75 - 3.25 = 1.5 m/s so from the first runner's perspective, the second runner is closing the 35 m gap at 1.5 m/s
