Question

Predict the distance at which two cars will collide when they start at opposite ends separated by a distance of 4 meters. One car leaves 1.5 seconds after the first car is released. One car has a velocity of 0.38 m/s and the other has a velocity of 0.31 m/s.

Answer 1

Try = 2aS=Vf^2-Vi^2

Answer 2

Vf=vi+at for a

Answer 3

what am i plugging in?

Answer 4

Take vi=0 and put the value now you have got vf for both cars..put the velocity for the car which started 1.5 sec before and find the distance..

Answer 5

You can get acceleration from vf=vi+at..then find S..where S is distance...
