A tortoise can run with a speed of 0.13 m/s, and a hare can run 20 times as fast. In a race, they both start at the same time, but the hare stops to rest for 5.0 minutes. The tortoise wins by a shell (20 cm). (a) How long does the race take? s (b) What is the length of the race?.

4) A tortoise and hare start from rest and have a race. As the race begins, both accelerate forward. The hare accelerates uniformly at a rate of 1.1 m/s2 for 4.1 seconds. It then continues at a constant speed for 13.7 seconds, before getting tired and slowing down with constant acceleration coming to rest 81 meters from where it started. The tortoise accelerates uniformly for the entire distance, finally catching the hare just as the hare comes to a stop....

A hare and a tortoise compete in a race over a straight course 1.10 km long. The tortoise crawls at a speed of 0.160 m/s toward the finish line. The hare runs at a speed of 7.50 m/s toward the finish line for 0.880 km and then stops to tease the slow-moving tortoise as the tortoise eventually passes by. The hare waits for a while after the tortoise passes and then runs toward the finish line again at 7.50 m/s....

A tortoise and hare start from rest and have a race. As the race begins, both accelerate forward. The hare accelerates uniformly at a rate of 1.2 m/s2 for 4.4 seconds. It then continues at a constant speed for 11.8 seconds, before getting tired and slowing down with constant acceleration coming to rest 81 meters from where it started. The tortoise accelerates uniformly for the entire distance, finally catching the hare just as the hare comes to a stop. 1)...

2020 COS-241: DATA STRUCTURES Problem 2: Simulation: The Tortoise and the Hare DESCRIPTION This project deals with the classic race between the tortoise and the hare. For this project, you be using random-number generation to move the creatures. To make things more interesting, the animals have to race up the side of a slippery mountain, which could cause them to lose ground. In this race either animal could win or there could be a tie with no clear winner. The...
