Question 1040151: a cop in pursuit of a speeder going 100 miles per hour can drive 110 miles per hour. At the moment the cop reaches his full speed the speeder is one-half mile ahead. How much time will it take the cop to reach the speeder? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! That is how long does it take to go 1/2 mile at 10 mph? The cop is going 10 mph faster and is 1/2 mile behind.
At 10 mph, a body moves a mile in 6 minutes or a half mile in 3 minutes.
3 minutes.
