Two cars are traveling along a straight road. Car A maintains a constant speed of 95 km/h and car B maintains a constant speed of 121 km/h. At t = 0, car B is 41 km behind car A.

(a) How much farther will car A travel before car B overtakes it?km
(b) How much ahead of A will B be 30 s after it overtakes A?km

Answer

given,

Speed of car A = 95 Km/h

                         = 95 x 0.278 = 26.41 m/s

Speed of Car B = 121 Km/h

                         = 121 x 0.278 = 33.64 m/s

Distance between Car A and B at t=0 = 41 Km

a) Distance travel by car B

   d = 26.41 t + 41000

speed of the car A = 33.64 m/s

distance = s x t

26.41 t + 41000 = 33.64 x t

7.23 t = 41000

t = 5670.82 s

time taken by Car B to cross Car A is equal to t = 5670.82 s

distance traveled by car A

D = s x t  = 26.41 x 5670.82 = 149766.25 m = 149.76 Km

b) distance travel by the car B in 30 s after overtaking car A

   D' = s x t = 33.64 x 30 = 1009.2 m = 1 Km
