The distance between two particles is decreasing at the rate of $6 \,m/s$. If these particles travel with the same speeds and in the same direction,then the separation increases at the rate of $4 \,m/s$. The speeds of the particles are:

Two particles start simultaneously from the same point and move along two straight lines,one with uniform velocity $v$ and the other with a uniform acceleration $a$. If $\alpha$ is the angle between the lines of motion of the two particles,then the least value of relative velocity will be at time given by

Two skaters $P$ and $Q$ are skating towards each other. Skater $P$ throws a ball towards $Q$ every $5 \,s$ such that it always leaves her hand with speed $2 \,ms^{-1}$ with respect to the ground. Consider two cases:
$(I)$ $P$ runs with speed $1 \,ms^{-1}$ towards $Q$,while $Q$ remains stationary.
$(II)$ $Q$ runs with speed $1 \,ms^{-1}$ towards $P$,while $P$ remains stationary.
Note that irrespective of the speed of $P$,the ball always leaves $P$'s hand with speed $2 \,ms^{-1}$ with respect to the ground. Ignore gravity. At what intervals will the balls be received by $Q$?
