Two cars are travelling towards each other at a speed of $20 \,m \,s^{-1}$ each. When the cars are $300 \,m$ apart, both the drivers apply brakes and the cars retard at the rate of $2 \,m \,s^{-2}$. The distance between them when they come to rest is: (in $\,m$)

  • A
    $200$
  • B
    $50$
  • C
    $100$
  • D
    $25$

$A$ car $A$ is travelling on a straight level road with a uniform speed of $60 \text{ km/h}$. It is followed by another car $B$ which is moving with a speed of $70 \text{ km/h}$. When the distance between them is $2.5 \text{ km}$,the car $B$ is given a deceleration of $20 \text{ km/h}^2$. After how much time will $B$ catch up with $A$ in hours?

$A$ bird flies to and fro between two cars which move towards each other with velocities $v_1 = 20\, m/s$ and $v_2 = 30\, m/s$. If the speed of the bird is $v_3 = 10\, m/s$ and the initial distance of separation between them is $d = 2\, km$,find the total distance covered by the bird until the cars meet. (in $, m$)

$A$ car travelling at $15 \,m/s$ overtakes another car travelling at $10 \,m/s$. Assuming each car is $4 \,m$ long, what is the time taken during the overtake (in $\,s$)?

On a foggy day,two drivers spot each other when $80\, m$ apart. They were travelling at $70\, km/h$ and $60\, km/h$. Both apply brakes simultaneously which retard the cars at the rate of $5\, m/s^2$. Which of the following statements is correct?

$A$ body $A$ is thrown vertically upwards with such a velocity that it reaches a maximum height of $h$. Simultaneously,another body $B$ is dropped from height $h$. It strikes the ground and does not rebound. The velocity of $A$ relative to $B$ $(V_{AB})$ versus time $(t)$ graph is best represented by: (upward direction is positive)
