Philosophy How can one explain this conflict between philosophy and classicclassical physics conflict?

Consider two moving objectobjects along X-axis direction with different speeds and different initial starting points. Let the initial distance of the objects be d0 and v1 is greater than v2 i.e v1>v2. enter image description here

physicPhysics says:

x1x1 = v1v1 * t + x01x01 = v1v1 * t

x2x2 = v2v2 * t + x02x02 = v2v2 * t + d0

ifIf we put x1x1 = x2x2 we obtain :

t = d0 / (v1v1 - v2v2)

and O1O1 because of its greater speed will eventually reach to O2O2.

butBut philosophy says othersomething else:

O1O1 in t_1=t1=(somthingsomething calculable) will reach to O2'sO2's current position but in this time interval O2O2 will move x_1=x1=(somthingsomething calculable) toward.

againAgain in the new situation O1O1 in t_2=t2=(somthingsomething calculable) will reach to O2'sO2's current position b but in this time interval O2O2 will x_2=be x2=(somthingsomething calculable) toward.

byeBy repeating this procedure t_ntn and x_nxn approaches to zeroszero but does not become zero, therefore O1O1 will never reaches O2reach O2.

How do you explain this?

thankThank you so much

best regards.

Philosophy and classic physics conflict

Consider two moving object along X-axis direction with different speeds and different initial starting points. Let the initial distance of objects be d0 and v1 is greater than v2 i.e v1>v2. enter image description here

physic says:

x1 = v1 * t + x01 = v1 * t

x2 = v2 * t + x02 = v2 * t + d0

if we put x1 = x2 we obtain :

t = d0 / (v1 - v2)

and O1 because of its greater speed will eventually reach to O2.

but philosophy says other:

O1 in t_1=(somthing calculable) will reach to O2's current position but in this time interval O2 will move x_1=(somthing calculable) toward.

again in new situation O1 in t_2=(somthing calculable) will reach to O2's current position b but in this time interval O2 will x_2=(somthing calculable) toward.

bye repeating this procedure t_n and x_n approaches to zeros but not zero, therefore O1 will never reaches O2.

But philosophy says something else:

O1 in t1=(something calculable) will reach to O2's current position but in this time interval O2 will move x1=(something calculable) toward.

Again in the new situation O1 in t2=(something calculable) will reach to O2's current position b but in this time interval O2 will be x2=(something calculable) toward.

By repeating this procedure tn and xn approaches to zero but does not become zero, therefore O1 will never reach O2.

How do you explain this?

Thank you so much.
