If it took LeBron James 186 hrs to reach his intended Southward destination at his full speed of 55 mph and it took Albert Haynesworth 230 hrs to reach his intended Northward destination while he was running at his full speed of 30 mph. How long would it take for a collision between the 2 to be made? What would be the casulaties of passerbys that witnessed such a catastrophic event?

I would answer this properly, except for one thing:

I am mathematically challenged. confused

If the witnesses were to see those two crashing into one another then they would probably be traumatized (since some would be Lebron James and also because seeing a potential death take place is traumatic in general).

Well...this Q isn't completed...

If by northward/southward....do you mean that there is a slope?
If so, what are the angles of the slopes....

And even if they are heading towards each other...how do we know that they running in the exact same line?

....Its impossible to answer this, since you need to know the starting location of at least one of them...They could be parallel and never meet...so...

If Dwight Howard throws a ball from the upper deck at a velocity of 54.6 mph, 142 yards away from the basket, how many seconds will it take for the ball to go through the basket?

Thus, How many weeks will it take Orlando to decide that they WILL match Marcin Gortat's offer sheet?
