I have a problem, and I need to find the displacement of a runner. Here is the question:
Runner A is initially 6.24 mi W of a flagpole and is running with a constant velocigy of 4.06 mi/h dye east. Runner B is intitally 3.43 mi E of the flagpole abd us running with a constand velocity of 4.99 mi/h due W. Consider East to be the positive direction.
What is the displacement of runner B from the flagpole when their paths cross? Answer in units of mi.
