A triathlete on the swimming leg of a triathlon is 120.0 m from the shore (a). The triathlete's bike is 90.0 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 178.1 m. Triathlete a Water shoreline X y b Land If the triathlete's running speed is 8.55 m/s and swimming speed is 1.796 m/s, calculate the value of x so that the triathlete reaches her bike in the least amount of time. Snell's Law is helpful here. Submit Answer Incorrect. Tries 2/12 Previous Tries Calculate the minimum time required to reach the bicycle. Submit Answer Incorrect. Tries 1/12 Previous Tries
