So this what is the problem a runner completes when the force of a five Dash mile race every eight minutes at the same pace. How far can the runner go in 16 minutes
To find out how far the runner can go in 16 minutes, we need to calculate the distance covered in 8 minutes and then double it.
The runner completes a 5-mile race every 8 minutes, so the distance covered in 8 minutes is 5 miles.
Therefore, in 16 minutes, the runner can go 5 miles x 2 = 10 miles.
To find out how far the runner can go in 16 minutes, we need to determine the runner's pace (distance covered in one minute) first.
Given that the runner completes a five-mile race in eight minutes, we can calculate the pace by dividing the total distance covered by the total time taken:
Pace = Total distance / Total time
Pace = 5 miles / 8 minutes
Pace ≈ 0.625 miles/minute
Now we can find out how far the runner can go in 16 minutes. We'll multiply the pace by the total time:
Distance = Pace * Total time
Distance = 0.625 miles/minute * 16 minutes
Distance ≈ 10 miles
Therefore, the runner can go approximately 10 miles in 16 minutes.
To determine how far the runner can go in 16 minutes, we need to figure out the distance covered by the runner in 1 minute.
The problem states that the runner completes a 5-mile race in 8 minutes. This means that for every 8 minutes of running, the runner covers a distance of 5 miles.
To find out the distance covered in 1 minute, we can divide the distance covered in 8 minutes (5 miles) by 8:
Distance covered in 1 minute = 5 miles / 8 minutes
Now we can calculate the distance the runner can go in 16 minutes by multiplying the distance covered in 1 minute by 16:
Distance covered in 16 minutes = (5 miles / 8 minutes) * 16 minutes
Simplifying the equation:
Distance covered in 16 minutes = 10 miles
Therefore, the runner can go a distance of 10 miles in 16 minutes.
