Two cars face each other, 160m apart on a straight, level road. The left-hand car accelerates from rest at 6.3 m/s^2, while the right-hand car accelerates from rest at 4.7 m/s^2.
(i) How much time elapses before the cars meet? [Hint: the value of 't' is the same for each car, and the sum of the two separate distances is the total initial distance between them.]
(ii)What is the speed of car A relative to car B when they meet?
