Two cars \(A\) and \(B\) are travelling in the same direction with velocities \(v_1\) and \(v_2\) \((v_1>v_2).\) When the car \(A\) is at a distance \(d\) behind the car \(B,\) the driver of the car \(A\) applied the brake producing uniform retardation \(a.\) There will be no collision when:
1. \(d < \frac{\left( v_{1} - v_{2} \right)^{2}}{2 a}\)

2. \(d < \frac{v_{1}^{2} - v_{2}^{2}}{2 a}\)

3. \(d > \frac{\left(v_{1} - v_{2}\right)^{2}}{2 a}\)

4. \(d > \frac{v_{1}^{2} - v_{2}^{2}}{2 a}\)
