Absolute position x vs time t graph of an ant crawling at 1 cm/s (red) relative to and along an elastic band of 4 cm initial length stretching at 2 cm/s painted in eights (shaded background) by CMG Lee. The asymptote (dashed purple) shows the position of the ant if the band was not stretching. As the ant's position has an exponential component, it will eventually catch up with the end of the band (green) regardless of the ratio of their initial speeds.
