    Kinematic car overtake problem: Don’t know what to do...

    Okay, so this is what I did and I got the answer 15 s. I’m not fully sure if the answer is right so do you know if I’ve done everything correctly?

    Kinematic car overtake problem: Don’t know what to do...

    Yes, makes sense. It’s just that I don’t know how to tilt the line to get the proper answer in my graph. The reason I’m doing it is because I think I’ll understand it better once I can see it visually.

    Kinematic car overtake problem: Don’t know what to do...

    I did a v-t-graph. But I get lost on what to do when it’s starts to accelerate at 10 seconds. This is what I’ve done so far. Any suggestions on how I can move forward?

    Kinematic car overtake problem: Don’t know what to do...

    Hmm, that’s weird in that case, cause I’m in a beginner physics course and it just started, so I haven’t learned a lot yet. It’s strange if I a got a homework this hard like you said then. I’ve just been taught some basic formulas, so felt so lost when this problem came up. I do want to...

    Hmm, I can’t find anything about that in my course book, so no.

    Kinematic car overtake problem: Don’t know what to do...

    This is why I’m here. I don’t know how to solve the problem and need help. Been struggling with this problem for a while now. Been googling, watching YouTube videos trying to figure it stuff out. Unfortunately, my teacher is basically not present to help and is bad at explaining. My course book...

    Kinematic car overtake problem: Don’t know what to do...

    After 10 seconds, car A has driven 150 m and car B 200 m. The difference is 50 meters.

    Kinematic car overtake problem: Don’t know what to do...

    This is what I've done so far: 54 km/h = m/s 72 km/h = m/s a = 2,0 m/s^2 A = d_1 = v * t = 15 * 10 = 150 m B = d_2 = v * t = 20 * 10 = 200 m d_3 = d_1 - d_2 = 200 - 150 = 50 m Don‘t know how to continue to solve the problem.
