Two ufpd are patrolling the campus on foot. to cover more ground, they split up and begin walking in different directions. office a is walking at 5 mph directly south while office b is walking at 6 mph directly west. how long would they need to walk before they are 2 miles away from each other?

0.256 hours

Explanation:

Vectors in the plane

We know Office A is walking at 5 mph directly south. Let be its distance. In t hours he has walked

Office B is walking at 6 mph directly west. In t hours his distance is

Since both directions are 90 degrees apart, the distance between them is the hypotenuse of a triangle which sides are the distances of each office

This distance is known to be 2 miles, so

t is approximately 15 minutes

as a general rule, scissors have blades less than 6 in (15 cm) long and usually have handles with finger holes of the same size. shears have blades scissors used to cut hair or fabric must be much sharper

increasing transnational kinetic energy. because the transnational kinetic energy formula consists of only two variables, mass and velocity, increasing one of those properties is the only way to increase an object's transnational kinetic energy. increases to mass and velocity, however, do not have the same impact.
