Chapter 2: Problem 93
Two people walking on a sidewalk have the following equations of motion: $$ \begin{aligned} &x_{1}=8.2 \mathrm{~m}+(-1.1 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}) t \\ &x_{2}=5.9 \mathrm{~m}+(1.7 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}) t \end{aligned} $$ (a) Which person is moving faster? (b) Which person will be at \(x=0\) at some time in the future?
