The required distance after time t is given as 1.5t.
Given that,
Speed in the race is given as 1.5 meters per second, to determine distance, d, is covered after, t, seconds.
Distance is defined as the object traveling at a particular speed in time from one point to another.
Speed is defined as when an object is subjected to movement, the distance covered by the object in a certain time interval is the speed of that object.
Here,
Speed = 1.5 m/s
Distance = speed × time
Distance = 1.5 × t
Distance(d) = 1.5t
Thus, the required distance after time t is given as 1.5t.

The ladder leaning against the wall forms a right angled triangle with the gound and the wall. So we can use the formula:
a² + b² = c²
The ladder is the hypotenuse c²
The vertical leg is b²
The base or horizontal leg is a²
We need to find the length of the base a², so:
a² = c² - b²
a² = 5² - 4²
a² = 25 - 16
a² = 9
a = √9
a = 3
Therefore the bottom of the ladder must be 3 feet from the wall.
The welder needs to cut off 9 3/8 inches from the longer piece.
To determine how much the welder needs to cut off from the longer piece of pipe, we need to find the difference between the lengths of the two pieces.
Given that the longer piece is 28 1/8 inches and the desired length is 18 3/4 inches, we can subtract the desired length from the longer piece's length:
28 1/8 - 18 3/4 = 9 3/8
Therefore, the welder needs to cut off 9 3/8 inches from the longer piece of pipe.
