Final answer:
Horse 2 will win. Comparing the velocities of Horse 1 and Horse 2, Horse 2 will reach the finish line first due to its higher velocity of 12 m/s to the right.
The answer is option ⇒b
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine which horse will make it to the finish line first, we need to compare their velocities. Horse 1 has a velocity of 10 m/s to the right, and Horse 2 has a velocity of 12 m/s to the right. Since both horses are moving in the same direction (to the right), we can directly compare their speeds.
Given that a higher velocity will result in a quicker time to cover the same distance, we can conclude that Horse 2, with the higher velocity of 12 m/s, will make it to the finish line first.
Therefore, the answer to the question is: (b) Horse 2 will win.
Your question is incomplete, but most probably the full question was:
Horse 2 has a velocity of 12 m/s to the right. Using your velocity answer (v= 10 m/s to the right) for Horse 1, which horse will make it to the finish line first?
a. Horse 1 will win
b. Horse 2 will win
c. Both horses will tie
