A car is behind a truck going on the highway. The 18 m/s car’s driver looks for an opportunity to pass, guessing that his car can accelerate at 0.60 m/s2 and that he has to cover the 20-m length of the truck, plus 10-m extra space at the rear of the truck and 10m more at the front of it. In the oncoming lane, he sees a car approaching, probably at the speed limit 25 m/s, (55 mph). He estimates that the car is about 500 m away. Should he attempt the pass? (1) The car should pass (2) The car should not pass (3) The car should pass the message (4) The car should fly
