Question

a) A bus has velocity 20m/s towards east and another bus has velocity 15m/S
in west direction. If they start to move from a point simultaneously, what
distances do they cover in 2 minute? What will be their separation?
(2400m east, 1800m west, 4200m)​

Answer 1

Answer:

If we will observe the situation according to the car then velocity of motor cyclist with respect to the car is

∴ motorcyclist will more along the line MP with respect to the car as shown in the diagram below [ref. image]

The shortest distance will be the perpendicular distance from C to MP=d=50cos53

=1.6 second.

Answer 2

Explanation:

they will cover 2400 m in east and 1800 m in west direction simultaneously , at starting in the starting 1 sec only , they will separate
