Two cars are moving towards an intersection. One car is 180180 meters north of the intersection and moving towards the intersection at 1313 m/s, while the other is 6060 meters west of the intersection and moving away from the intersection at 1010 m/s. How rapidly are the cars approaching each other 55 seconds later?

Two cars are moving towards an intersection. One car is 150 meters north of the intersection and moving towards the intersection at 20 m/s, while the other is 180 meters west of the intersection and moving towards the intersection at 16 m/s. How rapidly are the cars approaching each other 4 seconds later?
A person is standing 350 feet away from a model rocket that is fired straight up into the air at a rate of 15 ft/sec. At what rate is the distance between the person and the rocket increasing 30 seconds after liftoff?
A police car is located 60 feet to the side of a straight road. A red car is driving along the road in the direction of the police car and is 180 feet up the road from the location of the police car. The police radar reads that the distance between the police car and the red car is decreasing at a rate of 85 feet per second. How fast is the red car actually traveling along the road? The actual speed (along the road) of the red car is feet per second
Three cars, A,B, and C, are moving along a straight section of highway. If the velocity of A relative to B is +60m/s and the velocity of A relative to C is +20m/s, then what is the velocity of C relative to B?
Two people on bikes are separated by 350 meters. Person A starts riding north at a rate of 5 m/sec and 7 minutes later Person B starts riding south at 3 m/sec. At what rate is the distance separating the two people changing 25 minutes after Person A starts riding? O 3.45 O 15.99 7.996 4.55
An automobile moving with 95 km/hrs is passing a train that is 1.10 km long. The speed of the train moving on a horizontal rail roads in the same direction as the automobile is 75 km/hrs. How long does it take for the automobile to pass the train? What is the distance covered by the automobile during this time?
Two cars approach each other at an intersection. Car A is traveling south at 30 m/s, while car B is traveling 70 degrees north of east at 50 m/s. What is the speed (in m/s) of car A as seen by the driver of car B?
Two cars approach a street corner at right angles to each other. One is red and one is blue. Both cars have the same speed of 40 km/hr. The blue car is moving due south and the red car is moving east. What is the velocity of the red car as seen by the observer in the blue car (find both the magnitude and the direction)?
A motorboat is crossing a river that flows eastward at a speed of 5 kph. If the boat needs to maintain its northward course and a speed of 10kph relative to an observer standing on the river bank, what should be its velocity relative to the river? Hint: Solve for Vbr.
Daniel takes his two dogs, Pauli the Pointer and Newton the Newfoundland, out to a field and lets them loose to exercise. Both dogs sprint away in different directions while Daniel stands still. From Daniel's point of view, Newton runs due North at 3.90m/s, but from Pauli's point of view, Newton appears to be moving at 1.50 m/s due East. What must Pauli's velocity relative to Daniel be for this to be true? Express your answer in terms of the ? and ?‑components if North is the +? direction and East is the +? direction. a) ?-component (m/s): ?-component (m/s): b) Express your answer as a magnitude and an angle measured counter‑clockwise from due East.
Huck Finn walks at a speed of 0.60 m/s across his raft (that is, he walks perpendicular to the raft's motion relative to the shore). The raft is traveling down the Mississippi River at a speed of 1.75 m/s relative to the river bank. What is Huck's velocity (speed and direction) relative to the river bank?
A convertible and a minivan leave a highway junction at the same time. The convertible travels west at 55 miles per hour and the minivan travels north at 65 miles per hour. Assuming the two vehicles do not deviate off course, how far apart are they after 2.5 hours?
