Two particles having position vectors $r_1 = (3 \hat{i} + 5 \hat{j}) \text{ m}$ and $r_2 = (-5 \hat{i} - 3 \hat{j}) \text{ m}$ are moving with velocities $v_1 = (4 \hat{i} + 3 \hat{j}) \text{ m/s}$ and $v_2 = (a \hat{i} + 7 \hat{j}) \text{ m/s}$. If they collide after $2 \text{ s}$,then the value of $a$ is:

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $4$
  • C
    $6$
  • D
    $8$
