The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the motion of both bodies A and B and determine the relative velocity of B with respect to A when they meet. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Motion of Body A**: - Body A moves with a constant velocity \( V_A = \upsilon \). - The distance traveled by A after time \( t \) is given by: \[ S_A = V_A \cdot t = \upsilon t \] 2. **Understanding the Motion of Body B**: - Body B starts from rest and moves with a constant acceleration \( A \). - The initial velocity \( u_B = 0 \). - The distance traveled by B after time \( t \) is given by the equation of motion: \[ S_B = u_B \cdot t + \frac{1}{2} A t^2 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} A t^2 = \frac{1}{2} A t^2 \] 3. **Setting the Distances Equal**: - Since both bodies meet at the same point, we can set their distances equal: \[ S_A = S_B \] \[ \upsilon t = \frac{1}{2} A t^2 \] 4. **Solving for Acceleration \( A \)**: - Rearranging the equation gives: \[ A t^2 = 2 \upsilon t \] - Dividing both sides by \( t \) (assuming \( t \neq 0 \)): \[ A t = 2 \upsilon \] - Thus, we can express \( A \) as: \[ A = \frac{2 \upsilon}{t} \] 5. **Finding the Velocity of Body B**: - The velocity of body B at time \( t \) is given by: \[ V_B = u_B + A t = 0 + A t = A t \] - Substituting the value of \( A \): \[ V_B = \left(\frac{2 \upsilon}{t}\right) t = 2 \upsilon \] 6. **Calculating the Relative Velocity of B with Respect to A**: - The relative velocity of B with respect to A is given by: \[ V_{BA} = V_B - V_A \] - Substituting the known velocities: \[ V_{BA} = 2 \upsilon - \upsilon = \upsilon \] ### Final Answer: The relative velocity of B with respect to A when the bodies meet each other is: \[ \boxed{\upsilon} \]

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the motion of both bodies A and B and determine the relative velocity of B with respect to A when they meet. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Motion of Body A**: - Body A moves with a constant velocity \( V_A = \upsilon \). - The distance traveled by A after time \( t \) is given by: \[ ...
