Aturtle and a snail are 360 meters apart, and they start to move towards each other at 3 p. m. if the turtle is 11 times as fast as the snail, and they met at 3: 40 p. m., find the speed of each. a turtle and a snail are 360 meters apart, and they start to move towards each other at 3 p. m. if the turtle is 11 times as fast as the snail, and they met at 3: 40 p. m., find the speed of each. a turtle and a snail are 360 meters apart, and they start to move towards each other at 3 p. m. if the turtle is 11 times as fast as the snail, and they met at 3: 40 p. m., find the speed of each. a turtle and a snail are 360 meters apart, and they start to move towards each other at 3 p. m. if the turtle is 11 times as fast as the snail, and they met at 3: 40 p. m., find the speed of each.

Snail's speed = = 0.0125m/s

Turtle's speed =   = 0.1375m/s

Explanation:

Let the snail's speed be x m/s

The turtle's speed then is 11x m/s

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

Since speed and distance are directly proportional;

The ratio of the distances snail and turtle cover before they meet is x:11x respectively.

Simplified, the ratio of snail distance : turtle distance = 1:11

So snail covers a distance of × 360 = 30m

And turtle covers a distance of × 360 = 330m

The time each took before they met is 40 × 60 = 2400 seconds

Snail's speed = = 0.0125m/s

Turtle's speed =   = 0.1375m/s

the only real purpose of sputnik 1 was to beat the us into space. we were getting close to launching a useful satellite, explorer 1 - which launched on january 31, 1958. the ussr had to beat that, so they launched sputnik 1 on october 4, 19
