Two matotsykla go to each other the speed of the first 38 km / h and another 46 km / h now the distance between them is 80 km. What is the distance between them in 0.6 hours?
First, let’s calculate the speed at which the two bikes approach each other by adding their two speeds together:
1) 38 km / h + 46 km / h = 84 km / h.
Next, let’s calculate the speed of convergence of motorcycles in meters per minute, remembering that one hour is 60 minutes, and one kilometer is 1000 meters.
84000 m / 60 min = 1400 m / min = 1.4 km / min.
Let’s find out how many kilometers two motorcycles can approach each other in:
0.6 h = 60 min * 0.6 = 36 min.
2) 1.4 km * 36 min = 50.4 km.
The distance between motorcycles in 0.6 hours will be:
3) 80 – 50.4 = 29.6 km.
