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
    $25$

Two trains $A$ and $B$,initially $120\, km$ apart,start moving towards each other on the same track with a velocity of $60\, km/hr$ each. At the moment of start,train $A$ blows a whistle,which reflects off train $B$ and subsequently reflects off train $A$,and so on. If the velocity of sound waves in air is $1200\, km/hr$,what is the total distance travelled by the sound waves before the trains crash (in $km$)?

$A$ $100\,m$ long train crosses a man travelling at $5\,km/h$ in the opposite direction in $7.2\,s$. The velocity of the train is $..........\,km/h$.

Two cars $A$ and $B$ are travelling in the same direction with velocities $V_A$ and $V_B$ $(V_A > V_B)$. When the car $A$ is at a distance $S$ behind the car $B$,the driver of the car $A$ applies the brakes producing a uniform retardation $a$. There will be no collision when:

Write the relation between instantaneous velocity and relative velocity for uniform motion.

$A$ 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?
