A motoreycle patrolman starts from rest at A two seconds after a car, speeding at the constant rate of 120 km/h, passes point A. If the patrolman accelerates at the rate of 7.5 m/s until he reaches his maximum permissible speed of 93.2 mph, which he maintains, calculates the distance S from point A to the point at which he overtake the car.

An uncontrolled automobile traveling at 45 mph strikes a highway crash barrier square on. After initially hitting the barrier the automobile decelerates at a rate proportional to the distance x the automobile has moved into the barrier, that is, a = -60x1/2 , where a and x are expressed in ft/s2and ft, respectively. Determine the distance the automobile will move into the barrier before it comes to rest. (Draw the diagram)
The car is traveling at a speed of 56 mi/hr as it approaches point A.
