Answer:
One would need to know how far apart the towns are:
T = SA / 40 time it takes for first cyclist to travel S1
T = SB / 60 time it takes for cyclist B to travel distance S2
SA + SB = S the distance between the towns
SB = 60 / 40 SA = 1.5 SA
SA + 1.5 SA = S
S = 2.5 SA where cyclist travels distance SA
The time will depend on the separation of the towns.
Explanation:
The solute does not have to be in the same physical state as the solvent, but the physical state of the solvent usually determines the state of the solution. As long as the solute and solvent combine to give a homogeneous solution, the solute is said to be soluble in the solvent.
