An automobile is driving excessively fast at a constant speed of 28m/s. An officer notices the speeding vehicle. The police officer
starts from rest just as the speeder passes it, and accelerates at a constant rate of 2.1m/s2. The maximum speed of the police car
is 54m/s. When the officer's vehicle reaches maximum speed, it moves at a constant speed.
a. How long does the officer take to catch the speeder?
X S
b. What distance has each vehicle traveled?
Xm
c. If the police car starts is after the speeder passes it, how long does it take to catch the speeder?
X S
