Answer:
The pickup truck and hatchback will meet again at 440.896 m
Explanation:
Let us assume that both vehicles are at origin at the start means initial position is zero i.e. = 0. Both the vehicles will cross each other at same time so we will make equations for both and will solve for time.
Truck:
= 33.2 m/s, a = 0 (since the velocity is constant),
= 0
Using
s = 33.2t .......... eq (1)
Hatchback:
,
= 0 m/s (since initial velocity is zero),
= 0
Using
putting in the data we will get
now putting 's' value from eq (1)
which will give,
t = 13.28 s
so both vehicles will meet up gain after 13.28 sec.
putting t = 13.28 in eq (1) will give
s = 440.896 m
So, both vehicles will meet up again at 440.896 m.
