When Sam drove at 9.5 m/s on university blvd, she passed her friend, Jess who was riding a bike at 5.0m/s. As Sam was passing Jess, she started to slow down while Jess kept her constant speed. So Jess caught up to Sam after 3 seconds. a.) Determine the distance traveled by Jess when she caught up to Sam.
