Question
A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at
constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car
and the motorcycle are both traveling at the same speed
of 23.0 m/s, and the distance between them is 55.0 m.
After t₁ = 3.00 s, the motorcycle starts to accelerate at a
rate of 7.00 m/s². The motorcycle catches up with the
car at some time t2.
