Points a and b are separated by 1 km a started moving towards b with a constant acceleration of5 m/s^2 while b starts moving away from a. With a constant speed of 1 m/s find -1. At what point will they meet  2. After what time will they meet  3. What is the velocity of AandB when they meet

Let A meet B at after t seconds.
 
Distance travelled by A = (1/2)at2 = (1/2)×5×t2 ..........................(1)
 
Distance travelled by B = v×t = 1×t  ..................................(2)
 
where a is acceleration of A and v is uniform speed of B.
 
since initially A and B are 1 km apart, from eqn.(1) and eqn.(2), we have,    (5/2)t2 - t = 1000  ......................(3)
 
By solving eqn.(3), we get t = 20.2 s
 
(1) at what point they will meet :-  distance travelled by A = (1/2)×5×20.2×20.2 = 1020.1 m
        Hence both A and B will meet at a distance 1020.1 m from starting point of A
 
(2) after what time they will meet ,  t = 20.2 s
 
(3) velocity of A at meeting point = a×t = 5×20.2 = 101 m/s  ;   Since B is moving with constant speed, velocity of B = 1 m/s
