Question

Runner A is initially 8.4 km west of a flagpole and is running with a constant velocity of 4.8 km/h due east. Runner B is initially 6.0 km east of the flagpole and is running with a constant velocity of 8.4 km/h due west. What will be the distance of the two runners from the flagpole when their paths cross?

Thanks for your help :)

Answer 1

Distance = 2m

Step-by-step explanation:

Runner A : 1,75

Runner B : 0.71 ( divided speed over velocity for both & B)

Distance = 1,75 + 0,71 = 2,46 m

Is it right?
