20) order the cyclists from fastest to slowest. three cyclists start a bike race. they race 6 s.
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Recall speed - distance relationship
Speed is distance divided by time. For a fixed - time race, the cyclist who travels the most distance is the fastest.
Step2: Determine distances at (t = 6s) (assume the x - axis is time and y - axis is distance)
By looking at the graph at (t = 6s) (if we assume the graph is linear and we can estimate the values), we can see that Cyclist B has the highest distance value, followed by Cyclist A, and then Cyclist C.
Answer:
Cyclist B, Cyclist A, Cyclist C
