A Ford passes a Toyota on the road (both vehicles are traveling in the same direction). The Ford moves at a constant speed of 48.8 m/s. Just as the Ford passes it, the Toyota is traveling at 10.2 m/s. As soon as the Ford passes the Toyota, the Toyota begins to accelerate forward at a constant rate. Meanwhile the Ford just keeps going at a steady 48.8 m/s to the east. The Toyota catches up to the Ford a distance of 82.7 m ahead of where the Ford first passed it. What was the magnitude of the Toyota s acceleration?   A 45.6 m/s^2   B 13.8 m/s^2   C 22.8 m/s^2   D 6.9 m/s^2
