A thief is trying to escape from a parking garage after completing a robbery, and the thief’s car is speeding (v = 12 m/s) toward the door of the parking garage (Fig. P2.60). When the thief is L = 30 m from the door, a police officer flips a switch to close the garage door. The door starts at a height of 2.0 m and moves downward at 0.20 m/s. If the thief’s car is 1.4 m tall, will the thief escape?
