Two cars
and
are moving on a road in the same direction. Accleration of car
increases linearly with time whereas car
moves with a constant accleration. Both cars cross each other at time
, for the first time. The maximum possible number of crossing(s) (including the crossing at
) is .
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION
(3)
is constant
is constant
as initial velocities are not mentioned in question, so will have to assume two cases.
Case-I
and
in same direction

Total number of crossing
Case-II
and
in opposite direction
Total number of crossing
