On a two lane road, car A is travelling with a speed of 36 km h −1 . two cars B and C approach car A in opposite directions with a speed of 54 km h −1 each. At a certain instant, when the distance AB is equal to AC, both being 1 km, B decides to overtake A before C does. What minimum acceleration of car B is required to avoid an accident?
