Jim can ride his bike at 12 meters per second. Bob can ride his bike at 10.5 m/s. If they are travelling 2.5 miles, how long will Jim have to wait for Bob?

just a example

Explanation:

Elena always rides her bicycle at a speed of 15 miles per hour. On Sunday, she goes on a 24 mile bike ride. How many hours does this ride take?

Solution

The speed of 15 miles per hour is a rate. The key words that tell us that this is a rate are "speed" and "miles per hour". We can write:

r = 15

Next, 24 miles is a distance. We have:

d = 24

Now use the d=rt equation to get

24 = 15t

To solve this, divide both sides by 15 to get

t = 24/15

Both are divisible by 3, so this fraction reduces to

t = 8/5 = 1.6

Elena's ride takes 1.6 hours.

i'm thinking more like energy

the electric field is a “force field” around a charged object that illustrates the direction the electric force would push an imaginary
