Chapter 2, Problem 21Q
Two football players start running at opposite ends of a football field (opposite goal lines), run toward each other, and then collide at the center of the field. They start from rest and are running at top speed when they collide. (a) Draw a graph showing the position as a function of time for both players. (b) Draw a graph showing their velocities as functions of time.
