AUniversal mixing
BUniform motion
CUniform mixture
DUncommon motion
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Uniform motion
1. These problems involve things travelling rather than things being bought.
2. The key assumption is that no vehicle speeds up or slows down.
3. When the speed of each vehicle is constant, these are uniform motion problems.
4. So the answer is uniform motion.
