In a race of 1000 m, A runs at 9 m/s and B at 8 m/s. What head start should A give B to finish together?
Answer:
111.11
Step-by-step solution: 1. For a dead heat, both runners must take equal time. 2. Use time = distance / speed for each runner. 3. A covers 1000 m while B must cover 1111.11 m at the slower speed. 4. Head start = distance * (1 - speed_B/speed_A) = 111.11 m.

In a race of 850 m, A runs at 11 m/s and B at 10 m/s. What head start should A give B to finish together?
Answer:
77.27
Step-by-step solution: 1. For a dead heat, both runners must take equal time. 2. Use time = distance / speed for each runner. 3. A covers 850 m while B must cover 927.27 m at the slower speed. 4. Head start = distance * (1 - speed_B/speed_A) = 77.27 m.
