long piece of paper is10 cm wide and is moving uniformly along its length with a velocity of `2 cm//s`. An ant starts moving on the paper from point A and moves uniformly with respect to the paper. A spider was located exactly opposite to the ant just outside the paper at point B at the instant the ant started to move on the paper. The spider, without moving itself, was able to grab the ant 5 second after it (the ant) started to move. Find the speed of ant relative to the paper.
