$A$ motor car moving at a speed of $72 \, km/h$ cannot come to a stop in less than $3.0 \, s$,while for a truck,this time interval is $5.0 \, s$. On a highway,the car is behind the truck,both moving at $72 \, km/h$. The truck gives a signal that it is going to stop in an emergency. At what distance should the car be from the truck so that it does not bump into (collide with) the truck? The human response time is $0.5 \, s$.

Two skaters $P$ and $Q$ are skating towards each other. Skater $P$ throws a ball towards $Q$ every $5 \,s$ such that it always leaves her hand with speed $2 \,ms^{-1}$ with respect to the ground. Consider two cases:
$(I)$ $P$ runs with speed $1 \,ms^{-1}$ towards $Q$,while $Q$ remains stationary.
$(II)$ $Q$ runs with speed $1 \,ms^{-1}$ towards $P$,while $P$ remains stationary.
Note that irrespective of the speed of $P$,the ball always leaves $P$'s hand with speed $2 \,ms^{-1}$ with respect to the ground. Ignore gravity. At what intervals will the balls be received by $Q$?
