In the lab you explored how a lioness can catch a gazelle despite the fact that the lioness' top speed is slower than gazelle's, and gazelle has a distance head start during the chase. The graph below uses the same approximations you did in the lab and assumes that the lioness and the gazelle have constant accelerations until the they reach their top speeds. 30 Velocity, m/s 0 0 5 10 15 20 25 Time,s If lioness gave up an unsuccessful chase at the moment she reached her top speed, what was the minimal separation between the gazelle and the lioness at the start of the chase. Use the information given to you on the graph above for all parameters you need to answer the question. Assume that the gazelle had a head start in distance, but no head start in time.
