A car and a truck are moving in opposite directions, the speed of a passenger car is 70 kilometers
A car and a truck are moving in opposite directions, the speed of a passenger car is 70 kilometers per hour and the speed of a cargo car is 54 kilometers an hour, now there are twelve point two kilometers between them, what is the distance between them in zero point three hours
1. Let us determine what the speed of removal of a car and a truck is equal to, if from the condition of the problem we know that a car travels at a speed of 70 km per hour, and a cargo car at a speed of 54 km per hour. To do this, add up their speeds.
70 + 54 = 124 km per hour.
2. Let’s determine what distance the cars will cover in 3/10 hours. To do this, we multiply the removal rate by time.
124 * 3/10 = 372/10 = 37.2 km.
3. Find out what distance will be between cars in 3/10 hours, if now there are 12 2/10 km between them.
12 2/10 + 37.2 = 12.2 + 37.2 = 49.4 km.
