1) A car is stopped at a red light. When the light turns green, the car begins to accelerate with a constant acceleration of 4.0 m/s2. Just as the car starts moving, it is passed by a small truck traveling uniformly at with a speed of 12 m/s. (a) Find the distance traveled by each vehicle after 1 s, and 10 s. (b) At what time after the light turns green will the car pass the truck?
