Answer: 20 mph
Explanation:
Speed is a physical quantity which is equal to the ratio between the distance covered (d) and the time taken (t):
In the first part of the problem, the plane flew a distance of d=400 mi in a time of t=2.5 h. The speed of the plane in this case was the difference between the proper speed of the plane, v, and the speed of the wind, w, since the plane flew opposite to the wind. So we can write:
(1)
During the return trip, the plane flew with a speed (v+w), since the wind was on the tail, and it took 2 hours to cover the same distance:
(2)
So we have two equations with two unknown variables. From (1), we get
Substituting into eq.(2)
So, the speed of the wind was 20 mph.
Answer:
speed of car A =Speed of car B=0.8 miles/minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that speed of car A is equal to speed of car B.
Also let car A travels x miles.
and car B travels y miles.
Car A reaches its destination in 17 minutes.
this means that speed of car A is given by: miles/minutes ( since speed is defined as the ratio of distance and time).
Car B reaches its destination in 32 minutes.
This means that the speed of car B is given by: miles/minutes
as speed of both cars are equal this means:
------(1)
Also we are given Car B travels 12 miles farther than Car A.
this means
------(2)
on using equation (1) and (2) we have:
Hence the speed of car A is 0.8 miles/minutes ( since x/17 is the speed of car A)
Speed of car B=0.8 miles/minutes.
