Two cars, traveling the same direction, enter an intersection at the same time. Car #1, enters the intersection traveling at a speed of 19 m/s while Car #2 starts from rest. After 5 seconds of travel, Car #1 has a speed of 19 m/s while Car #2 has a speed of 8 m/s after accelerating at a uniform rate. How far did Car #1 travel? What acceleration does Car #2 experience? How far did Car #2 travel?

Two cars, traveling the same direction, enter an intersection at the same time. Car #1, enters the intersection traveling at a speed of 19 m/s while Car #2 starts from rest. After 5 seconds of travel, Car #1 has a speed of 19 m/s while Car #2 has a speed of 8 m/s after accelerating at a uniform rate.
How far did Car #1 travel?
What acceleration does Car #2 experience?
How far did Car #2 travel?
Answer the following for each car traveling a distance of 480 m (Assume that Car #2 continues to accelerate at the rate found above):
Which car will travel 480 meters first?
How long will it take Car #1 to travel 480 m?
What is the speed of Car #1 at 480 m?
How long will it take Car #2 to travel 480 m?
What is the speed of Car #2 at 480 m?
Given,
After starting from intersection point,
Initial speed of Car #1, u1 = 19 m/s
Initial speed of Car #2, u2 = 0 m/s
After t = 5 s
Final speed of Car #1, v1 = 19 m/s
Final speed of Car #2, v2 = 8 m/s
