Two small children are riding toward each other along the x axis on their tricycles. At time t = 0 the first child is located at the origin and travels with a constant speed v₁ in the +x direction. Also at t = 0 the second child starts from rest at x = d and accelerates in the - direction with acceleration ax (t) = -c₁t, where c₁ is a positive constant. (i) Derive an equation that could be solved to find the time at which the two children collide. (ii) If the time of impact in part (i) is denoted by t*, how fast will the second child be traveling at the time of impact?
