Vectors (Constant Velocity) Notes

This document discusses the motion of particles P and Q. (i) Particle P is moving with a velocity of 20 ms-1 in the direction of e o . (ii) The position vector of P after t seconds is e o . (iii) Particle Q has a position vector of e o at t = 0 and a velocity of e o ms-1. The question asks to find the time when P and Q collide and the position vector of the collision point.
