A Wide Reciever is running along the sideline straight towards the goal at a constant speed. When he is 27 m away from the goal line he cathces the ball, but theire is a cornerback 12 m behind him moving with a connstant speed of vc=9.0 m/s what speed should the wide reveiver have to make sure he reaches the goal line just as the cornerback reaches him.
