3. A tortoise and a hare engage in a race. A tortoise can run with a speed of 0.15 m/s. A hare can run 25 times as fast as the tortoise. In the race, they start at the same time; however, the hare being very proud of his much higher speed stops for a nap for 5.0 minutes. The tortoise wins the race by 35 cm. (a) What is the length of the race? (b) How long does the race take? 4. A car starts at rest and accelerates with an acceleration of 4.51 m/s2. After the car travels a distance of 355 m, it slows down with an acceleration of -2.34 m/s2 until its speed reaches 25.4 m/s. What is the total displacement of the car
