Tara and Ben each run 6km every morning.
\n" ); document.write( "Tara runs at an average speed of 10 km/h, while Ben runs at an average speed of 3 m/s.
\n" ); document.write( "How long after Tara, should Ben begin running if they wish to complete their runs at the same time?
\n" ); document.write( " Give your answer in minutes and seconds.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find how long it takes T to run 6 km
\n" ); document.write( "t = 6/10 hr
\n" ); document.write( "t .6(60) = 36 min or 36*60 = 2160 seconds
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find how long it takes B to run 6 km
\n" ); document.write( "6 km = 6000 meters
\n" ); document.write( "t = 6000/3
\n" ); document.write( "t = 2000 seconds
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "2160 - 2000 = 160 seconds, which is 2 min 40 sec
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Ben should begin 2 min 40 sec after Tara starts \n" ); document.write( "
