Overtake or Intercept Calculator

The Overtake or Intercept Calculator has the following functions to help estimate times, speeds and distances associated with one object (person, bicycle, car, boat, aircraft or spaceship) overtaking or intercepting another in a linear distance:  

• Time to Overtake: Computes the time for one object to overtake another.
• Distance to Overtake: Computes distance traveled to overtake another.
• Speed to Overtake by Distance: Computes the average velocity to overtake another within a specified distance.
• Speed to Overtake by Time: Computes the speed needed to overtake within a specified time.
• Distance Traveled: Computes the distance traveled over a period of time.
• Haversine Distance: Distance between two points (lat/lon) on a globe.
