A Ford Territory and a Montero Sport are traveling in the same direction at 60.0 kph on a straight highway, parallel to each other, and the Territory is ahead of Montero by 248,90 kph. At a certain time, Territory decelerates uniformly at 2.50 m/s2, whereas the Montero accelerates uniformly at 2.0 m/s2. At what distance measured from the initial position of Montero will it overtake Ford Territory.
