12. A car travelling at 90 km/h is 500 m behind another car travelling at
70 km/h in the same direction. How long will it take the first car to
catch the second?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

1.5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relative speed  at which the car behind travels compared to the other car is 90 - 70 = 20 km/hr.

The time taken to travel 500 m ( =0.5 km) is  0.5 / 20 = 0.025 hours.

= 0.025 * 60 = 1.5 minutes.
