Particles P and Q move on a straight line AOB. The particles leave O simultaneously, with P moving towards A and with Q moving towards B. The initial speed of P is 1.3 m s-1 and its acceleration in the direction OA is 0.1 m s-2. Q moves with acceleration in the direction OB of 0.016t m s-2, where t seconds is the time elapsed since the instant that P and Q started to move from O. When t = 20, particle P passes through A and particle Q passes through B.

  1. Given that the speed of Q at B is the same as the speed of P at A, find the speed of Q at time t = 0.
  2. Find the distance AB.
