0=mbvbmdvd, v=dt, 0=mbdbtmdddt, 0=mbdbmddd. db+dd=2.4 m. dd=1.92 m,dd=0.48 m. Ddog=6.11.92=4.2 m.0=m_bv_b-m_dv_d,\\\space\\ v=\dfrac dt,\\\space\\ 0=m_b\dfrac{d_b}{t}-m_d\dfrac{d_d}{t},\\\space\\ 0=m_bd_b-m_dd_d.\\\space\\ d_b+d_d=2.4 \text{ m.}\\\space\\ d_d=1.92\text{ m},\\ d_d=0.48\text{ m}.\\\space\\ D_\text{dog}=6.1-1.92=4.2\text{ m}.
