Question:

Two automobiles A and B are approaching each other in adjacent highway lanes. At t = 0, A and B are 0.62 mi apart, their speeds are vA = 68 mi/h and vB = 39 mi/h, and they are at points P and Q, respectively. Knowing that A passes point Q 40 s after B was there and that B passes point P 42 s after A was there, determine

(a) The uniform accelerations of A and B,

(b) When the vehicles pass each other,
