Car A starts from rest at t =0 and travels along a straight road with a constant acceleration of 8 ft/s2 until it reaches a speed of 80 ft/s. Afterwards it maintains this speed. Also, when t =0, car B located 8000 ft down the road is traveling towards car A at a constant speed of 60 ft/s. Determine the distance travelled by car A when they pass each other. A.3,600 ft                          B.4,400 ft C. 5,600 ft                          D. None of these
