Q. The beetles go on tour.

You place six beetles (non-vocal insects) at equal distances around the edge af a four foot diameter round table. At time zero, each beetle takes off in a straight line for the beetle immediately counter-clockwise on the table from it (so they will all eventually meet in the center). Traveling at 1 inch/second, how long would it take before they all reach the center?
