Question
Chapter 2.1, Problem 5SSC
To determine
To Draw:A particle body motion diagram for the two runners during a race in which first runner crosses the finish line as the other runner is three fourths of the way to finish line.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
In motion diagram the moving object are represented by points.
Red points represent position of runner 1 and blue points represents position of runner 2 for every equal interval of time.
Here runner 1 reaches the finish line first, so it clearly shows that runner 1 is running faster than runner 2.
So,runner is always ahead of runner 2 as shown in figure above.
