A police car is asked to overtake a red sedan that is 16 km ahead of it on the freeway. The red sedan is traveling at 80 km/hr and the police car travels at 100 km/hr. When will the police car overtake the sedan?

Sagot :

Answer:

S = v0 t + 1/2 a t^2       a = 0 seems given in the problem

Vp  t = Vr t + 16

both travel for time t but the police car is going faster and travels 16 km farther

t (Vp - Vr) = 16

t = 16 km / (100 - 80) km/hr

t = 16 / 20 hr = 4/5 hr = 48 min
