What is t when they collide? Then, what does [imath]\alpha[/imath] have to be in order to collide where they do?

When you've shown your own thinking, we can help you with it.

Hint: Collision happened when [imath]x = 20 \ \text{m}[/imath] and [imath]y = 10 \ \text{m}[/imath]. These are the same components of vector [imath]\bold{r}_A[/imath] at collision. Can we form two simultanuous equations and solve for [imath]t[/imath] and [imath]\alpha[/imath]?
