Consider two toy cars. Car A starts from rest and speeds up with constant acceleration for a time delta t until it reached a speed of v and then continues to travel at this speed. At the moment car A reaches its maximum speed, car B, starting at rest from the same point that car A started from, speeds up with constant acceleration.
Determine the ratio Vb/Va where is the speed of car B at the moment it passes car A. Simplify your answer as much as possible. What it the limit Vb/Va as acceleration B approaches 0?
