Randy an Deborah are standing at one end of a basketball court, each with a basketball. Randy rolls his basketball so that it moves at a constant speed of 5.0 m/s toward the other end of the court. Deborah waits 2.0 s before she rolls her basketball. With what speed must Deborah's ball move if it is to arrive at the other end of the court at the same time as Randy's basketball? The length of the court is 26 m.
