Category 1: Two Independent Bodies(ii) Interception
If both bodies have an i and a j component then for interception to occur you must make use of the fact that either the i component or the j component will be the same.

Category 1: Two Independent Bodies:(iii) Shortest Distance
Usually at higher level one of the cars will have to be brought to the junction – so which one?Technically it doesn’t matter, but the solution is more straightforward if (when one car is at the junction) the other is also on the x–axis.2009 (a)

Two Independent Bodies – (v) Distance from each other
To solve this one draw a circle around the ‘stationary’ object whose radius corresponds to the distance given in the question (say 10 km). Now draw the Vab vector.Where this cuts the circle corresponds to A first coming within 10 km of B and where it cuts the circle on the way out corresponds to A being more than 10 km of B.Use Pythagoras’ Theorem to get the length of this chord. Now knowing this length and the velocity Vab, work out the time.
