Consider the rubber cord with one end attached to a tree and another - to a car moving away from the tree with the velocity \(V = 1 0 m / s\) At some point an ant appears on the fixed end of the cord and starts running along it with the velocity \(v = 1 0 c m / s\) Will it reach the car? Assume the cord can be stretched up to arbitrary length.
