    d. less than 20m/s

    Explanation:

    To the 2nd car, the first car is travelling 10m/s east and 10m/s south. So the total velocity of the first car with respect to the 2nd car is

    [tex]/sqrt{10^2 + 10^2} = 10/sqrt{2}=14.14m/s

    As 14.14m/s is less than 20m/s. d is the correct selection for this question.
