Compute how long does the race take

Reference no: EM13647636

A tortoise can run with a speed of 0.12m/s, and a hare can run 20 times as fast. In a race, they bothstart at the same time, but the hare stops to rest for 1.0 minutes. The tortoise wins by a shell(30 cm).

(a) How long does the race take?

(b) What is the length of the race?
