1. The cyclist cycles at a steady speed of 5m/s. How many metres does the cyclist travel? How many seconds does it take the cyclist to complete the journey?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "distance is 5 km
\n" ); document.write( "1 km = 1000 m
\n" ); document.write( "5 km = 5000 m\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "time taken by cyclist = d/r => 5000/5 - 1000 seconds\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2. The car sets off 500 seconds after the cyclist and travels at a constant speed of 20/s. How many seconds does it take the far to complete the journey?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "distance = 5000 m
\n" ); document.write( "rate = 20 m/s\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "time = 5000/20 = 100 seconds \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
