The straight roads intersect at an angle of 60°. A bus on one road is 2 km away from the intersection and a car on tire other road is 3 km away from the intersection. Then, the direct distance between the two vehicles, is

Two straight roads meet an angle of 60^(@) . Initially one man is at a distance of 10 m on one road from the crossing and the other at a distance of 20 m on the other road from the crossing. They starts moving at the same instant with the same speed towards the crossing. find the minimum distance between them.

Directions for questions 8-10: A police van, approaching a right-angled intersection from north, is chasing a car that has turned the corner and is now moving straight east. When the van is 0.6 km north of the intersection, the car is 0.8 km to the east. At that instant the police determines with the help of the radar that the distance between the car and the van is increasing at a rate of 20 km/ hr. The speed of the police van at that instant (71) is 60 km/ hr. Q8) If s is the distance between the car and the van, r is the position of the car and y is the position of the van at time t, then

Two highways are perpendicular to each other : imagine them to be along the x-axis and the y-axis, respectively. At the instant t=0, a police car P is at a distance d= 400m from the intersection and moving at speed of 80km // h towards it along the x-axis. Motorist M is at a distance of 600m from the intersection and moving towards it at a speed of 60km // h along the y-axis . The minimum distance between the cars is

Two buses start from the opposite points of a main road, 150 km apart. The first bus runs for 25 km and takes a right turn and then runs for 15 km. It then turns left and runs for another 25 km and takes the direction back to reach the main road. In the meantime, due to a minor break down, the other bus has run only 35 km along the main road. What would be the distance between the two buses at this point ?
