When does the jam start?

想象一个有两辆车的道路,每个长度 L L . Car 1 gets on the road at t = 0 t = 0 moving at v 1 v_{1} , and car 2 gets on the road at t = t 2 t =_{2} , moving at v 2 > v 1 v_{2} > v_{1} .

At what time does the front of car 2 to get in contact with the back of car 1?

Solve for the case where

v 1 = 20 m/s , v 2 = 25 m/s , t 2 = 100 s v_{1} = 20\text{ m/s}, v_{2} = 25 \text{ m/s}, t_{2} = 100 \text{ s} , and L = 5 m L = 5 \text{ m} .
