document.write( "The distance between them is (Pythagoras)  \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    d = \"sqrt%28%2860t%29%5E2+%2B+%2880t%29%5E2%29\" = \"%28sqrt%2860%5E2%2B80%5E2%29%29%2At\" = 100t.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The problem asks to calculate the derivative d'(t) at t= 2 seconds.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The derivative is d'(t) = 100.  It is constant and does not depends on time.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So, the answer is: the distance between Reden and Neil uncreases at the constant rate of 100 cm per second.\r\n" );
