Chapter , Problem 9

(choose chapter or problem)

In 1 km races, runner 1 on track 1 (with time 2 min, 27.95 s) appears to be faster than runner 2 on track 2 (2 min, 28.15 s). However, length \(L_{2}\) of track 2 might be slightly greater than length \(L_{1}\) of track 1. How large can \(L_{2}-L_{1}\) be for us still to conclude that runner 1 is faster?
