Kinematic problem help!
David is driving a steady 31.0 m/s when he passes Tina, who is sitting in her car at rest. Tina begins to accelerate at a steady 2.80 m/s^2 at the instant when David passes.
How far does Tina drive before passing David?
What is her speed as she passes him?
I know that there is two different cars moving seperatly and they will need two different equations, but I am not sure exactly how to go about this one?
