This is the solution to this problem
Important \ Formula : s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2
Let us assume the distance of the path to b x (which needs to be calculated
t= Time taken for both the cars to meet at the final point (The time taken will be the same for both cars)
Solution:
Ans: The \ length \ of \ the \ path \ is \ 6m
