Jacob, who is four years old, decides to walk on the conveyor belt in the "wrong" direction (that is, in the direction opposite to which he would travel if standing still). If he walks for 18 seconds at a rate of 1 foot per second, how far will he travel? In what direction does he travel? Explain.
Distance divided by time is speed. 300/60=5. He would have to move 5 feet per second. It depends on how quick the conveyor belt is to how fast he actually has to walk.
