Aspeeding car traveling at 24.8 m/s passes a police car that is at rest. the police car begins its pursuit at the instant the speeding car passes and maintains a constant acceleration. (a) what acceleration is required for the police car to overtake the speeding car in 897 m?

the acceleration required is 1.37m/s^2

Explanation:

The car is having a constant velocity movement, so if we calculate the time to reach 897m, we can use it to find the acceleration the policeman need to apply to reach the car.

the policeman is traveling with a constant acceleration starting from rest so:
