A triathlete on the swimming leg of a triathlon is 140.0 m from the shore (a). The triathlete's bike is 70.0 m from the shore on the land (b). The component of her distance from the bicycle along the shore line, ( x + y in the diagram), is 198.3 m.
If the triathlete's running speed is 8.95 m/s and swimming speed is 1.700 m/s, calculate the value of x so that the triathlete reaches her bike in the least amount of time.
Calculate the minimum time required to reach the
bicycle.
Alright Dude, If that worked for you... dont forget to give THUMBS UP.(that will work for me!)
If I missed something feel free to leave a comment.
atleast before giving downvote.
and, Thanks for using homeworklib- Smarter way to study.

A swimmer at S in the figure below develops a leg cramp while swimming near the shore of a calm lake and calls for help. A lifeguard at L hears the call. The lifeguard can run 9 m/s and swim 3 m/s. He knows physics and chooses a path that will take the least time to reach the swimmer. Which of the paths shown in the figure does he take?
A lifeguard wants to swim out to an anchored bouy 8.04 m from
the shoreline. The lifeguard can swim at a speed of 4.36 m/s, and
there is also a cross current running parallel to the beach, with
the water moving at a speed of 1.00 m/s. If the lifeguard heads
directly straight out from shore toward the bouy, how far to the
side of it will the lifeguard end up when he gets out there?

You are 2 miles downriver from your dog, and on the opposite side of the river, which is a half mile wide. Your dog will 12. swim and run to get to you. If will swim on average at 1 m/hr, and run at 10 mi/hr, how far will he be up shore from you when he gets out of the water IF he is to reach you as quickly as possible? Use the diagram to help and the steps...
Consider two bicycles, notably E and F, which start from the same point and travel along the same straight line from a start point P and reach an endpoint Q at a distance x from the start point. Bicycle E travels at a speed of 10.0 m/s and travels the distance x (from point P to point Q) in 12.0 seconds. Bicycle F travels at speed of 8.00 m/s and travels the same distance x (from point P to point...

A ball is thrown vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 18.80 m/s, from the ground. How long is the ball in the air? (Neglect air resistance.) What is the greatest height reached by the ball? Calculate the time at which the ascending ball reaches a height of 12.8 m above the ground. A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward with a constant acceleration of 53.0 m/s^2, until the fuel is used up after 6.80s. What...
An aircraft flying horizontally at a rate of 95.4 m/s drops a
packet from a height of 1,242 meters. Determine the speed the
package reaches at just the moment before touching the surface.
Consider both speed components.
If a body is dropped from a 401-foot-tall building, determine
the time in seconds it takes to reach the ground. (Free fall) enter
s as a unit of time.
