Relative Highway

Relative Highway#

Three cars are driving on different lanes on a highway. At \(t = 0 \ \rm{s}\), Car 1 is in the front travelling at a constant speed of \({{params.v1}} \ \rm{m/s}\). Car 2 is \({{params.d}} \ \rm{m}\) behind Car 1 and has a constant speed such that it will catch Car 1 in \({{params.t}} \ \rm{s}\). Car 3 is in between them travelling at a constant speed of \({{params.v3}} \ \rm{m/s}\).
