Two particle are moing along X and Y axes towards the origin with constant speeds u and v respectively. At time t=0 , their repective distance from the origin are x and y . The time instant at which the particles will be closest to each other is

Two racing cars 'A' and 'B' having masses 'M' and '2m' respectively start running from the starting line on a horizontal plane.Both cars 'A' and B' have same speed 'V' which is constant through out the journey. The track of the two cars are the arcs of concentric circle having centres O_(1) and O_(2) as shwon in figure with data. The friction coefficient of the two cars with the road is same. There is a finishing line at the end of the arc. Using these informations solve the following questions. The time interval during which the two cars have same angular speed :

The driver of a car moving with a speed of 10 ms^(-1) sees a red light ahead, applies brakes and stops after covering 10 m distance. If the same car were moving with a speed of 20 ms^(-1) the same driver would have stopped the car after covering 30 m distance. Within what distance the car can be stopped if traveling with a velocity of 15 ms^(-1) Assume the same reaction time and the same deceleration in each case

A driver having a definite reaction time is capable of stopping his car over a distance of 30 m on seeing a red traffic signal, when the speed of the car is 72 km/hr andover a distance of 10 m when the speed is 36 km/hr. Find the distance over which he can stop the car if it were running at a speed of 54 km/hr. Assume that his reaction time and the deceleration of the car remains same in all the three cases.

When the speed of a car is u , the mimimum distance over which it canbe stopped is a , If speed becomes nu , what will be the mimimum distance over which it can be stopped during the same time?

A car is moving towards south with a speed of 20 m s^(-1) . A motorcycst is moving towards east with a speed of 15 m s^(-1) . At a crttain instant, the motorcyclistis due south of the car and is at a distance of 50 m from the car. The shortest distance between the motorcyclist and the car is.
