Relative Motion in 1D

4 persons A, ...

Question

4 persons A, B, C, D are standing at corners of an square of side $^{'} a^{'}$ . If they move with speed $v$ in such way than A always moves towards B , B always moves towards C, C always moves towards D an D always moves towards A. Find out the following.
(a) At which position they will meet each other?
(b) At what time will they meet?

Solution

The figure shown is representing he situations mentioned in the question
(a)They will meet at centroid.
(b) The relative velocity between any two person is V.
$\to$ Distance to travel relative to other $= a$
time $= \frac{a}{v}$
