Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Question

Two elevators operating in parallel shafts, approach each other from positions
which are 120 m apart. The upper car has a downward acceleration of 0.5 m/s?,
and the lower car is being accelerated upward 1.0 m/s. When and where will
they pass each other if the lower car starts 1 second after the other? Draw the
figure properly. No figure no point.
