Answer

64.0 s

Work Step by Step

distance in m = 10.0 $\times$ 1000 = 1.00 $\times$$10^{4}$ $time_{younger}$ = distance / average speed = (1.00 $\times$$10^{4}$) / 4.39 $\approx$ 2.2779 $\times$$10^{3}$ s $time_{older}$ = distance / average speed = (1.00 $\times$$10^{4}$) / 4.27 $\approx$ 2.3419 $\times$$10^{3}$ s 2.3419 $\times$$10^{3}$ - 2.2779 $\times$$10^{3}$ $\approx$ 64.0 s
