    A speeder traveling at a constant speed of 99 km/h races past a billboard. A patrol car pursues from rest with constant acceleration of (9 km/h)/s until it reaches its maximum speed of 161 km/h, which it maintains until it catches up with the speeder. How long does it take the patrol car to catch the speeder if it starts moving just as the speeder passes? Answer in units of s. How far does each car travel? Answer in units...
