Two cars start together in the same direction from the same place. The first goes with uniform speed of `10 k m//hdot` The second goes at a speed of `8k m//h` in the first hour and increases the speed by `1//2k m` each succeeding hour. After how many hours will the second car overtake the first car if both cars to non-stop?
