Question

.

Answer 1

When two bodies move uniformly towards each other, the distance between them diminishes by 16m every 10s. IF bodies move with velocities of the same magnitude and in the same direction as before the distance then will decrease 3m every 5s. Caclulate the velocity of each body

Answer 2

v1 = 11/10
v2 =1/2

Answer 3

let me read

Answer 4

u + v = 16/10 = 8/5 --- (1)
u - v = 3/5 --- (2)
Add
2u = 8/5 + 3/5 =11/5
u = 11/10 m /s

From (1): v = 8/5 – u = 8/5 - 11/10 = 16/10 - 11/10 = 5/10 = 1/2

Answer 5

Absolutely great , this brilliant idea didn't strike me , thanks
