We'll assume they start out at the same time, although the question doesn't say that.

Kim's lead over Alex grows at (12 - 8) = 4 mph.

After 6 hours, they're (6 x 4) = 24 miles apart.

Linda bikes at 7 miles per hour and Dave bikes at 10 miles per hour how long will it be until they are 23 miles apart?

There isn't enough information to give you a definitive answer. We also need to know in which direction they are riding. If they are both riding in a straight line in the same direction, they will be 3 miles apart at the end of the first hour, 6 miles apart at the end of the second our, and 23 miles apart at the end of 7 hours and 40 minutes. If they are both riding in a straight line in opposite directions, they will be 17 miles apart after the first hour, and 23 miles apart after 1 hour, 21 minutes, and 10.6 seconds.

Two boats leave the port at the same time the first boat travels due east at 14mph and the second boat travels at 28mph inthe direction of N30degrees Ehow far apart will the boats be in 12 hr?

After 12 hours, the first boat is at a distance 14*12 = 168 miles east of the port. The second boat is at a distance 28*12*cos(30) = 291.0 miles north and 28*12*sin(30) = 168.0 miles east of the port. Since their Eastward displacement is the same, the distance between the two is the Northwards displacement of the second boat = 291.0 miles.

What travels did Claude Monet make as an artist?

How does being under water affect your hearing?

Sound travels faster under water. Thus when you are under water you can hear sounds OK, but you are unable to discern where the sounds are coming from like you can in air. This is because you ears/brain work out direction by the time delay of sound reaching each ear (your ears are a little distance apart thus sound from one direction hits one ear before the other). Under water because sound travels faster the delay is too short for the brain to distinguish.


Which of these travels the quickest wood iron ice air concrete water plastic?
