Cars a and b are racing each other along the same straight road in the following manner: car a has a head start and is a distance da beyond the starting line at t=0. the starting line is at x=0. car a travels at a constant speed va. car b starts at the starting line but has a better engine than car a, and thus car b travels at a constant speed vb, which is greater than va

how long after car b started the race will car b catch up with car a?

Assume that two of the electrons at the negative terminal have attached themselves to a nearby neutral atom. there is now a negative ion with a charge -2e at this terminal. what are the electric potential and electric potential energy of the negative ion relative to the electron? the electric potential and the electric potential energy are both twice as much. the electric potential is twice as much and the electric potential energy is the same. the electric potential is the same and the electric potential energy is twice as much. the electric potential and the electric potential energy are both the same. the electric potential is the same and the electric potential energy is increased by the mass ratio of the oxygen ion to the electron. the electric potential is twice as much and the electric potential energy is increased by the mass ratio of the oxygen ion to the electron.
