A blue car travels down a straight road at a constant speed of 19.9 m/s. As they pass a red car, initially stopped on the side of the road, the red car speeds up at a rate of 1.80 m/s2. How much distance (in m) does the red car travel before it overtakes the blue car?

During a slap shot, a hockey player accelerates the puck from a velocity of 8.00 m/s to 40.0 m/s in the same direction. If this shot takes 3.33 × 10−2 s , what is the distance over which the puck accelerates?
A police car is traveling at a velocity of 17.0 m/s due north, when a car zooms by at a constant velocity of 42.0 m/s due north. After a reaction time 0.300 s the policeman begins to pursue the speeder with an acceleration of 5.00 m/s^2. Including the reaction time, how long does it take for the police car to catch up with the speeder?
A car is travelling along a straight highway with a constant velocity of 10 m/s.

In a friendly game of chicken, Car A has a starting distance of 160m in front of Car B. Both cars start with the same speed of 100 km/h, and both cars accelerate at constant rates. Knowing that Car B accelerates at 4.25 m/s^2. And car A accelerates at 4.00 m/s^2 . Determine the position in meters, that they crash.
Suppose that a person unwisely drives 75 mi/h in a zone 55 mi/h and passes a police car going 55 mi/h in the same direction.
