Question

A project by some Engineering students requires them to monitor the traffic safety at a busy intersection . They measure ( with a precision stopwatch ) that exactly three seconds after car B passes through the intersection south at vg = 55 mph , minivan A passes through at VA = 70 mph on the road that runs at an angle = 60 ° east of north . The speed of each automobile is constant .

Determine ( a ) the relative velocity ( in mph ) of B with respect to A. draw the vector triangles as part of your answer ( b ) the change in position ( in ft ) of B with respect to A during a 10 - s interval , (c) the distance (in ft) between the two automobiles 3 s after A has passed through the intersection
