The car is traveling at a speed of 95 km/h as it approaches point A. Beginning at A, the car decelerates at a constant rate of 2 m/s2 until it gets to point B, after which its constant rate of decrease of speed is 0.9 m/s2 as it rounds the interchange ramp. Determine the magnitude of the total car acceleration: a) just before it gets to B, b) just after it passes B, and c) at point C.
