The video tutorial presents a challenging rectilinear motion problem involving a car and a biker. The car travels at a constant speed of 120 km/h, while the biker starts 2 seconds later, accelerates, and reaches a maximum speed of 150 km/h. The problem is analyzed using time-position and velocity-time graphs, and solved using mathematical formulas for acceleration and velocity. The solution involves calculating the distance the biker must travel to meet the car, considering different scenarios. The tutorial concludes with insights on the problem-solving process.
