Two stunt drivers drive directly toward each other. At time t = 0 the two cars are a distance D apart, car 1 is at rest, and car 2 is moving to the left with speed Va. Car 1 begins to move at t = 0, speeding up with a constant acceleration a.. Car 2 continues to move with a constant velocity.
(a) At what time do the two cars collide?
(b) Find the speed of car 1 just before it collides with car 2.
(c) Sketch x-t and v.-t graphs for car 1 and car 2. For each of the two graphs, draw the curves for both cars on the same set of axes.
