Question 92

A lorry is travelling along a straight horizontal road with constant speed 15 m s−1^{-1}−1.

At the instant the lorry passes a stationary car, the car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 2 m s−2^{-2}−2 along the same road in the same direction.

a.

Find the time taken for the car to catch up with the lorry.

[3]
b.

Find the distance travelled by the car in this time.

[2]
c.

Find the speed of the car at the instant it catches up with the lorry.
