Two cars start from rest side by side and travel along a straight road. Car A accelerates
Question:
Two cars start from rest side by side and travel along a straight road. Car A accelerates at 4 m/s² for 10 s and then maintains a constant speed. Car B accelerates at 5 m/s² until reaching a constant speed of 25 m/s and then maintains this speed. Construct the a-t, v-t, and s-t graphs for each car until t = 15 s. What is the distance between the two cars when t = 15 s?
