Q. At a certain instant, the car is 99 meters from the intersection.\newlineWhat is the rate of change of the distance between the car and the person at that instant (in meters per second)?\newline
  1. Calculate rate of change: Calculate the rate of change of distance between the car and the intersection. Assume the car moves at 2020 meters per second towards the intersection.\newlineRate of change = −20-20 m/s (negative because the distance is decreasing).
  2. Rate of change at intersection: Since the person is at the intersection, the rate of change of the distance between the car and the person is the same as the rate of change of the distance between the car and the intersection.
