Halliday, Resnick & Walker β Motion Along a Straight Line: Problem 7
7 A pigeon flies at 36 km/h to and fro between two cars moving toward each other on a straight road, starting from the first car when the car separation is 40 km. The first car has a speed of 16 km/h and the second one has a speed of 25 km/h. By the time the cars meet head on, what are the (a) total distance and (b) net displacement flown by the pigeon?
π Solution Approach
Given: 7 A, 36 km, 40 km, 16 km, 25 km
Find: (a) total distance and; (b) net displacement flown by the pigeon?
