A Yamaha NMAX starts from rest at t = 0 and travelling straight along McArthur Highway with a constant acceleration of 7ft/s² until it reaches a speed of 60ft/s, then maintains this speed. Also, when t = 0, a Yamaha Aerox located 8,000 ft. at the other end of the highway is traveling toward the NMAX at a constant speed of 40ft/s. Determine (a) the time and (b) the distance traveled by the NMAX when they pass each other.

1. A Yamaha NMAX starts from rest at t = 0 and travelling straight along McArthur Highway with a constant
acceleration of 7ft/s2 until it reaches a speed of 60ft/s, then maintains this speed. Also, when t = 0, a
Yamaha Aerox located 8,000 ft. at the other end of the highway is traveling toward the NMAX at a
constant speed of 40ft/s. Determine (a) the time and (b) the distance traveled by the NMAX when they
pass each other.
