Thanks a lot guys, and yes I did see the solution online using relative velocity along the line, It's just that I couldn't figure out why my solution was wrong. I have more clarity now, I'll be more careful next time when assuming things!
The thing is, I've already looked up at the solution online at it's t= 2a/3v. But I've approached it a different way and I can't really tell what I'm doing wrong, my solutions gives out t= (a/√3v )* (π/3),I don't know what's wrong with it. Here's my approach:
The points will meet at the...
