Calculation 36671

A boy leaves school at a speed of 1 m/s. At the moment, when he is 100m away from the school, a classmate on a bicycle comes behind him at a speed of 5m/s. How long and how far does the boy run from school? Solve by calculation and graphically.

Correct answer:

t =  25 s
s2 =  125 m

Step-by-step explanation:

v1=1 m/s v2=5 m/s s=100 m  s1 = s2 s + v1 t = v2 t  t=s/(v2v1)=100/(51)=25 s
s2=v2 t=5 25=125 m
