Question

A traffic officer is monitoring traffic on a windy section of road that has a speed limit of 55 miles per hour. A car speeds past the officer and the radar gun indicates the car is traveling 68 miles per hour. How far will the speeding car travel in one minute?

Answer 1

Answer:

The relative speed of the passing car is 13 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

$v = \frac{x}{t} \\ v = 13 \frac{mile}{hours} \\ t = 1 \: min \: = \frac{1}{60} \: hours \\ 13 = \frac{x}{ \frac{1}{60} } \\ 13 = \frac{60 \: x}{1} \\ x = \frac{13}{60} miles \: \\ and \: we \: are \: done.$
