Miles wants to chase a truck that is going at a speed of 25.0 kph, and thus starts accelerating from rest at 4.00 m/s. Caesar, sensing that Miles wants to steal property, and seeing him when he is 100.0 m away from him, rides a police car and starts accelerating at 10.0 m/s. Once Caesar’s car catches Miles, what is the distance traveled by the truck since Caesar started chasing Miles?
