We will see that Jo's speed, rounded to 2 digit places, is:
S = 6.42 km/h
<h3>
How to get Jo's speed?</h3>
Remember that:
<em>speed = distance/time.</em>
Nina takes 2 hours and 10 minutes to finish the race, first, let's write the time in hours:
1 hour = 60 min.
Then:
10 min = (10/60) hours = 0.167 hours.
So we can write the time as:
2.167 hours.
And the distance is 13km, so her speed is:
S = 13km/2.167h = 6 km/h
The time that she takes to reach a distance of 11km (where she meets with Jo) is:
T = 11km/(6 km/h) = 1.83 hours.
Now, Jo starts 7 minutes after Nina, then the time in which he travels the 11 km is:
1.83 hours - 7 minutes.
Where:
7 min = (7min/60 min) hours = 0.117h
Then the time is:
T= 1.83h - 0.117h = 1.713 hours.
So he travels 11km in 1.713 hours, then his speed is:
S = 11km/ 1.713 hours = 6.42 km/h
