Question
Two motorcycles are traveling due east with different velocities. However, 2.53 seconds later, they have the same velocity. During this
2.53-second interval, motorcycle A has an average acceleration of 3.92 m/s² due east, while motorcycle B has an average acceleration
of 20.0 m/s² due east. (a) By how much did the speeds differ at the beginning of the 2.53-second interval, and (b) which motorcycle was
moving faster?
