A velociraptor comes at you at 20m/s and it takes you exactly 2.22 seconds to hit the switch for the door which takes 3 seconds to close.
How far away must the velociraptor at least be from the door for your survival?
(reworded question to make more interesting without changing the problem. please show steps and answer)
To figure out how far away the velociraptor must be from the door for your survival, we can use the formula for distance, which is speed multiplied by time. Let's go through the steps to solve the problem:
1. Calculate the time it takes for the door to close: Given that the door takes 3 seconds to close, we don't need to do any calculations here.
2. Calculate the distance the velociraptor can cover in the time it takes you to hit the switch: The velociraptor moves at a speed of 20 m/s, and it takes you exactly 2.22 seconds to hit the switch. So, the distance covered by the velociraptor is:
Distance = Speed × Time = 20 m/s × 2.22 s = 44.4 meters
3. Calculate the distance between the door and the velociraptor at the moment you hit the switch: The distance between the door and the velociraptor is the initial distance between them minus the distance covered by the velociraptor. To survive, the velociraptor must be at least this far away from the door. Let's consider this initial distance as 'd':
Initial distance - Distance covered by the velociraptor = d - 44.4 meters
Therefore, the velociraptor must be at least d - 44.4 meters away from the door for your survival.
Note: The exact value of 'd' is not given in the problem, so we can't determine the specific distance in this scenario.
