Homework Statement
Two cyclists, A and B, have displacements 0 Km and 70 Km, respectively. At t = 0 they begin to cycle towards each other with velocities 15 Km/hr and 20 Km/hr, respectively. At the same time, a fly that was sitting on A starts flying towards B with a velocity of 30 Km/hr. As soon as the fly reaches B it immediately turns around and flies towards A, and so on until A and B meet.
a) What will the displacement of the two cyclists and the fly be when all three meet?
b) What will be the distance traveled by the fly?
