InterActivity: 2 Car Simulator Plus Variable Start Positions
Scenario with 2 cars and variable starting positions: Bobi sets out in his blue car at 20mph and a while later Rila sets out in her red car at 25 mph. They are talking on their hands-free cell phones when they both decide to stop where they are. Bobi is 30 miles from AbsolutelyNowhere and Rila is 20 miles from AbsolutelyNowhere. At exactly the same moment, they get back in their cars and both reset their stopwatches to 0 and continue driving at their set speeds. Will Rila meet up with Bobi before he gets to BeyondBoring? If so, when and where? What do each of their printouts show?. |
