(b) A car and a truck start moving at the same time, but the truck starts some distance ahead. The car and the truck move with constant accelerations a,-2 ms and a,-1 ms respectively, The car overtakes the truck after the latter has moved 32 m. ) How long did it take the car to catch up with the truck? i) What were the velocities of the car and the truck at that moment?
