The will dog catch up with the rabbit in 6 minutes assuming both their velocities remain constant during the chase.
What time will the dog catch the rabbit?
The time that the dog will catch up with the rabbit is given as follows:
Let the distance covered by the rabbit be x.
Distance covered by dog = x + 30
- Time taken = distance/speed
The time taken will be the same T
- Time taken by dog, T = (x + 30)/10
- Time taken by rabbit, T = x/5
Equating both times.
(x + 30)/10 = x/5
x = 30 m
Solving for T in equation (ii);
T = 30/5 = 6 minutes
In conclusion, time is obtained as a ratio of distance and speed.
