Constants
Part A
Mary and Sally are in a foot race (see figure (Figure 1)).
When Mary is 22 m from the finish line, she has a speed
of 4.0 m/s and is 5.0 m behind Sally, who has a speed
of 5.0 m/s. Sally thinks she has an easy win and so,
during the remaining portion of the race, decelerates at a
constant rate of 0.46 m/s2 to the finish line
What constant acceleration does Mary now need during the remaining portion of the race, if she wishes to cross the finish line side-
by-side with Sally?
Express your answer using two significant figures.
