- Homework Statement
- A car travels 9m/s east and a bus travels 13m/s east. The bus observes the car as being 9000m infront of it.
1. How long will it take the bus to reach the initial observation point of the car?
2. How long will it take the bus to reach the car?
- Relevant Equations
- would you use t=d/s?
for part 1: t= d/s = 9000/13 = 692.31s
for part 2: What i am unsure about is wether or not this is after the initial observation or exactly what they are asking honestly. so i found the relative velocity of the bus to the car and vice vera and came up with: t=d/s = 9000/4 = 2250s however i don't think that this is correct.
