Question

Two vehicles are moving, one with the velocity of 20 m/s towards east and another with 10 m/s towards west. Calculate the distance between them after 20 minutes they are started from the same place and the same time. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

12 km

Step-by-step explanation:

20 minutes = 20 * 60 = 1200 second

distance = velocity * time

car 1 = 1200 * 20 = 24000 m = 24km

car 2= 1200 * 10 = 12000 m = 12km

so distance between them after 20 minutes is 24 -12 = 12 km
