Relative motion based problems

Question

When a motorcycle moving with a uniform speed 11 m/s is at a distance 24 m from a car, the car starts from rest and moves with a uniform acceleration 2 m/s² away from the motorcycle. If the car begins motion at t = 0, time at which the motorcycle will overtake the car is t =

Moderate

A

8 sec
B

6 sec
C

3 sec
D

1.5 sec

Solution

Now as distance covered by motor cycle = 24 + distance covered by car
so, 11t= 24+ $\frac{1}{2} (2) (t^{2})$ = t = 3s and t =8s
