Homework Equations
3. The Attempt at a Solution [/b
As the axes are in meters the problem was instantly confusing.
For part a) we assumed spatial distance, so we subtracted distances on the x-axis and found our solution that way.
part b) was easier, we just drew in the causality lines and determined the solution that way.
