标题: Four Travelers Problem

(For me, it is pretty hard. Hope you high hands find it interesting.)

Four roads on a plane, each a straight line, are in general position so that no two are parallel and no three pass through the same point. Along each road walks a traveler at a constant speed. Their speeds, however, may not be the same. It's known that traveler #1 met with Travelers #2, #3, and #4. #2, in turn, met #3 and #4 and, of course, #1. Please show that #3 and #4 have also met.

标题: 给我们这样的普通人留一点机会呀[:L]

Sean 你真是太高了,情趣生活的那个Sean 是不是你?几何很厉害。 欢迎来WXC, 最近有一些悬而未决的几何题。www.ddhw.com
 
这个题目也在WXC贴出了,至今无解。有个梦回汉朝显然会做,他曾经贴了一句话提示:“ 物理方法”,被我错误的删掉了。后来(当然是过了很久)我理解了他的方法,也很巧妙(用一些物理术语描述起来或者更简单)。所以我觉得这题目还不错, 大概表面上看来不同的方法很多。它的那个解法我就不贴出了,一来不是我的,二来我怕理解错了。www.ddhw.com

标题: 回复:Four Travelers Problem

Rotate the the coordinate axes so that the projections of the speed V1 and v2 on the x axis are equal. Since #1 and #2 meet, their x coordinates are always equal. Also since #3 and #4 meet both #1 and #2 at different points, their x coordinates must be equal (to that of #1 and #2), too. Since their paths meet (this condition is redundent and can be deducted from the order of the events), they will arrive at the intersection at the same time.

In order for other guys to meet him, in #1's point of view, other guys must come towords him. Still in #1's point of view, in order for #3 and #4 to meet #2, #2, #3 and #4 should be on the same line (note that the roads are in general position).  Then the problem is simplified to be 1-dimensional. www.ddhw.com
