6) Two cars are travelling towards each other on a straight road at velocities 15 m/ s and 16 m/s respectively. When they are 150 m apart , both the drivers apply the brakes and the cars decelerate at 3 m/ s and 4 m/s until they stop. What is the separation between the cars when they come to rest ?

An unmarked police car traveling a constant 90 km/h is passed by a speeder. Precisely 1.00 s after the speeder passes, the police officer steps on the accelerator. If the police car accelerates uniformly at 3.00 m/s2 and overtakes the speeder after accelerating for 9.00 s , what was the speeder's speed?
2. Wellington Wildcat is rushing to get to a parade in time to be the grand marshal. He’s standing in theback of a flatbed truck while McFogg the Dog races at 25 m/s towards town. Suddenly, McFogg sees atiny maple leaf in the road 55 m ahead, and, being a proud Canadian, slams on the brakes to protect thesacred totem. Since McFogg is known to ride the brakes like a real jerk, let’s assume his reaction time tohit the breaks is essentially zero.A. Can McFogg actually stop before the truck reaches the leaf? The coefficients of friction betweenrubber tires and dry concrete are: μs = 1.00, μk = 0.80. When answering this question, be sure toinclude a free-body diagram representing the truck and its stellar mascots as a single object.B. Now here’s the real serious question: Is it possible for McFogg to stop short of the leaf such thatWellington does not slip and slide into the back of the truck cab? The coefficients of friction forWellington’s shoes on the bed of the truck are: μs = 0.60, μk…
