Homework Statement
My teacher gave our class a set of questions that are supposed to be challenging. This question has particularly stumped me... I can make a diagram, but I really don't know what to do next:
Savannah has just stepped out her front door, only to find that the school bus, located at the end of her driveway 30.0 m from her door, has just begun to accelerate away from her at 1.10 m/s2. Savannah immediately begins to chase the school bus at her top speed of 6.40 m/s. Will she catch the bus? Yes- where/when does she catch up to it? No- how close will she get?
Homework Equations
These are just guesses.
c2=a2+b2

v_{ave} = \Delta x / \Delta t

The Attempt at a Solution
Savannah:
v1=6.40 m/s
a=0
dx= ?
dy= 30.0m
t= ?
Am I on the right track?
I know you guys want me to try to solve the problem, but I've gotten a headache thinking about it
