    <h3> Statement </h3>
    <p>
        $1.1.12^*.$ Two rods intersect at an angle $2 \alpha$ and move with equal velocities $v$ perpendicular to themselves. What is the velocity of the intersection point of the rods?

          <p>
            As shown in the animation, the intersection point will remain on the bisection of the angle $2\alpha$ between them as they move

            Consider the change of the intersection point on the horizontal axis during the time interval $dt$
        </p>
          <p>
            From the geometry of a right triangle, the horizontal coordinate (aka hypotenuse) has changed to $dx = v dt / \sin\\,\alpha$
        </p>
          <p>
            From where the speed:
        </p>
        <p style="text-align: center;">
          $$\fbox{$u = \frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{v}{\sin\\,\alpha}$}$$
        </p>
    </p>

    <h4>Answer</h4>
    <p>
        $$u = v/ \sin α$$
