You are driving at a constant speed of 45.0 m/s when you pass a police officer on a motorcycle hidden behind a billboard. One second after your car passes the billboard, the police officer sets out from the billboard to catch you, accelerating at a constant rate of 3.00 m/s². How long does it take the police officer to overtake your car?

Two cars are heading towards one another. Car A is moving with an acceleration of aA = 7 m/s2. Car B is moving with an acceleration of aB = -4 m/s2. The cars are initially at rest and separated by a distance d = 2300 m on the x-axis. At what time, in seconds, do the cars meet? What is the displacement, in meters, of Car A? What is the displacement, in meters, of Car B? Now assume that both cars start with an initial velocity. Car A's initial velocity is v0A = 23 m/s and Car B's initial velocity is vB = -17 m/s. At what time, t2 in seconds, do they meet?
I had a dream last night that I was chased by my teddy bear. In my dream, I was sleepwalking at a constant velocity of 60ft/sec. At exactly 4:00 am I noticed my teddy bear standing 1000 feet behind me. At that instant I began to accelerate at 10 ft/sec/sec and the teddy bear began to accerlate after me at 12 ft/sec/sec. At the moment the bear caught up to me, I woke from my dream in a cold sweat. To the nearest second, What time was this?
A tourist being chased by an angry bear is running in a straight line toward his car at a speed of 5.11 m/s. The car is a distance d away. The bear is 34.0 m behind the tourist and running at 7.01 m/s. Both the bear and the tourist are running with constant velocity. What is the maximum possible value for d in meters for the tourist reaches the car safely?
A Ford passes a Toyota on the road (both vehicles are traveling in the same direction). The Ford moves at a constant speed of 30.5 m/s. Just as the Ford passes it, the Toyota is traveling at 15.3 m/s. As soon as the Ford passes the Toyota, the Toyota begins to accelerate forward at a constant rate. Meanwhile the Ford just keeps going at a steady 30.5 m/s to the east. The Toyota catches up to the Ford a distance of 103.8 m ahead of where the Ford first passed it. What was the magnitude of the Toyota s acceleration? 4.5 m/s^2 1.7 m/s^2 8.9 m/s^2 3.4 m/s^2
Jim is driving his car at 32m/s (72mi/h) along a highway where the speed limit is 25m/s (55mi/h). A highway patrol car observes him pass and quickly reaches a speed of 36m/s. At that point, Jim is 300m ahead of the patrol car. How far does the patrol car travel before catching Jim?
Alexis moves with a constant speed of 1.40 m/s and passes an apartment building in a moment. Lourdes finds herself in front of a church and bikes out to meet Alexis just as he passes the apartment building. If the magnitude of Lourdes' acceleration is 0.125 m/s2 and the building is separated from the church by a distance ? = 400 m, calculate: a) How long does Alexis take to meet Lourdes? And How far does each of them travel until they meet?b) What speed is Alexis traveling when he meets Lourdes? And What speed is Lourdes traveling when she meets Alexis?c) Explain with arguments, which of the two will reach the other building first?
