For A→:d = 5t+12×4t2   d=  5t+2t2   (Accelerated motion)---(1) For B→:  100 – d = 12t(uniform motion)---(2)   Adding (1) and (2) we get 100 =2t2  + 17t 2t2  + 17t -100=0 t=−17±(17)2−4(2)(−100)2×2        =−17±289+8004       t=−17±334 consider +33 as time cannot be negative t=4sec substittute t=4 in eqn (2) d=52 particles meet after 4 sec, after covering a distance of 52 m
