ASAP Answer a

a An automobile moving at a constant velocity of 15 m/s passes a gasoline station. Two
seconds later, another automobile leaves the gasoline station and accelerates at a
constant rate of 2 m/sec^2. How soon will the second automobile overtake the first in
seconds?
b A marksman aimed his rifle at the bull's eye of a target 50m away. If the bullet's speed is
350 m/s, how far below the bull's eye does the bullet strikes the target in centimeters.
C The flywheel of a puncher is to brought to a complete stop in 8 seconds from a speed of 60
revolutions per minute. Compute for the number of turns the flywheel will still make if its
deceleration is uniform.
