    Please show all work with an explanation. Two highways intersect at right angles. From out point of view, Car A on one highway is 0.5 km from the intersection and is moving toward it at 96 km/hr, while car B on the other highway is 1 km from the intersection and is moving away from it at 88 km/hr. We would therefore call the position and velocity of car A to us to be Position: ?⃗? ?? ?? = (0.5...

    You are arguing over a cell phone while trailing an unmarked police car by 32 m. Both your car and the police car are traveling at 110 km/h. Your argument diverts your attention from the police car for 2.5 s (long enough for you to look at the phone and yell, "I won't do that!"). At the beginning of that 2.5 s, the police officer begins emergency braking at 5 m/s2. (a) What is the separation between the two cars...
