Problem

Two particles are moving along xx -axis. Particle-1 starts from x=−10 mx = -10 \text{ m} with velocity 4 m/s4 \text{ m/s} along negative xx -direction and acceleration 2 m/s22 \text{ m/s}^2 along positive xx -direction. Particle-2 starts from x=+2 mx = +2 \text{ m} with velocity 6 m/s6 \text{ m/s} along positive xx -direction and acceleration 2 m/s22 \text{ m/s}^2 along negative xx -direction. Both start simultaneously. (a) Find the time when they collide. (b) Find the xx -coordinate where they collide.
