Question 442609: 2 cars are 500feet apart, traveling toward each other at 40mph.How much time does it take to be even with each other? Answer by mananth(16949) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Towards each other so add up speeds.
80 mph
500 ft = 500/5280 miles
t= d/r
t=(500.5280) /(80)
500 / (5 280 * 80) = 0.00118371212
0.00118371212* 3600 = 4.26 seconds
( 1 hour = 3600 seconds)
