Question
### Problem Statement

David is driving at a steady speed of \(22.0 \, \text{m/s}\) when he passes Tina, who is sitting in her car at rest. Tina begins to accelerate at a steady rate of \(2.80 \, \text{m/s}^2\) at the instant when David passes.

#### Part A

**Question:**  
How far does Tina drive before passing David?

**Instructions:**  
Express your answer with the appropriate units.

**Input Field:**  

- Value: [   ]  
- Units: [   ]

**Feedback:**  
- Incorrect; Try Again

#### Part B

**Question:**  
What is her speed as she passes him?

**Instructions:**  
Express your answer with the appropriate units.

**Input Field:**  

- Value: [   ]  
- Units: [   ]

### Explanation

This question requires understanding of the concepts of relative motion and acceleration. It involves calculating the distance Tina travels before overtaking David and her speed at that moment.
