2cycleists, 90 miles apart starting riding toward each other at some times one cycles twice as fast as the other if they meet 2 hrs later at what average speed is each cyclist traveling

Average speed of the first car= 15 miles/hr

Average speed of the second car= 30 miles/hr

Explanations:

distance= d= 90 miles

Time= 2 hrs

let speed of first cyclist= v

speed of second cyclist= 2v

relative speed = v + 2v= 3v

using relative speed= Total distance/Total time

3v= 90/2

3 v=45

v=15 miles/hr

so speed of first cyclist= 15 miles/hr

speed of second cyclist= 2 (15)= 30 miles/hr

answer: option c.

explanation:

jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, having a mass and radius that are respectively, 318 and 11.2 times that of earth. suppose that an object falls from rest near the surface of each planet and that the acceleration due to gravity remains constant during the fall. each object falls the same distance before striking the ground. determine the ratio of the time of fall on jupiter to that on earth.
