Shouldn’t it be ‘after having been together’? What is ‘at the same time’ referring to in that sentence? They wanted to break up at the same time (as in both had the idea)? They wanted to break up at the same time on the clock to continue the theme of things being same-y? The boy is due north of what? The place? The girl? Also, the girl should be wondering about her decision, I think. (I don’t even speak English every day anymore, so I could be wrong).

They probably would have stayed together if they had just had the sense to use SI units.

You don’t need calculus to do this. Neither one is accelerating, so just calculate the velocity of one in the reference frame of the other by subtracting the vectors: from the point of view of the boy, the girl’s velocity vector has a component of -5 ft/sec north and 1 ft/sec east, so the magnitude is 26^0.5 ft/sec.

At any given time T, the coordinates form a right triangle with legs of length 5T and T. Therefore the distance D is given by D^2 = (5T)^2 + T^2 = 26T^2. This simplifies to D = T * sqrt(26). Therefore the rate of separation is sqrt(26) ft/sec regardless of time

It depends on the size of their feet.

Maths/Physics with imperial units seem like a crime.

A girl was excited for her sweet 16, and she asked her boyfriend to buy her a car. He said yes. The night of the party, he didn’t come. She was very sad. Then she found out he’d died trying to drive two cars at once to her party. Like this if you love your boyfriend.

Do we need to compensate for the curvature of the earth?

One of my teachers in uni always used sex potion and leather wear examples. He had been reported for sexual abuse a year prior but continued in his assignments

Is this even calculus? Seems like simple geometry.

Its trigonometry - big brain time.
