So basically I have a said distance. There is one object moving at said speed from one side to the other(lets call it A to B), and another object moving at a different speed(faster speed) from the other side (B to A). How would I find the time it would take for the second object to reach the first?

    Ronnie, you're using the word "said" quite often in your questions, in surroundings where it is a rather non-standard choice of word. Usually "said X" is a lawyery/formal way of saying "the X that I spoke about previously", but in your question you seem to mean "some given X", "a known X" or "a certain X", or occasionally "an unknown X". Is your first language perhaps not English?2011-09-14

    @Ronnie.j A suggestion. Instead of repetitively using the word "said", you can perhaps use symbols. E.g.: So I have distance $d$. There is one object moving at speed $s_1$ from one side to another (let's call it A to B), and another object moving at speed $s_2$ from the other side (B to A).2011-09-15
