On a foggy day, the two cars are approaching each other on a straight road, with speeds `72 km h^(-10` and `54 km h^(-1)`. The drivers of the cars spot other when they were `60` meres apart. Both of them applied brakes, retarding their cars at of `6 ms^(-1)`. Predict whether they will avert collision or not.
