Question 2 of 3 > Near the end of a marathon race, the first two runners are separated by a distance of 45.0 m. The front runner has a velocity of 3.25 m/s, and the second runner has a velocity of 4.75 m/s. What is the magnitude of the velocity of the second runner relative to the first? velocity of the second runner relative to the first: m/s If the front runner is 215 m from the finish line, who will win the race, assuming both runners run at constant velocity?
