Given that,
Speed of first bicycle = 9 mph
Speed of second bicycle = 5 mph
Suppose the length of the circle 24 miles.
We need to find the relative velocity
Using formula of relative velocity
[tex]v=v_{1}-v_{2}[/tex]
Put the value into the formula
[tex]v=9-5[/tex]
[tex]v=4\ mph[/tex]
We need to calculate the time
Using formula of time
[tex]t=\dfrac{d}{v}[/tex]
[tex]t=\dfrac{24}{4}[/tex]
[tex]t=6\ hr[/tex]
We need to calculate the distance of the points where the two bicycles meet
Using formula of distance
For first bicycles,
[tex]d=9\times6[/tex]
[tex]d=54\ miles[/tex]
For second bicycles,
[tex]d'=5\times6[/tex]
[tex]d'=30\ miles[/tex]
Hence, The points where the two bicycles meet after every 6hr at 30 miles and 54 miles.
