It is now 8:59 a.m. when the bell rings at 9:01 am. Damian will be late for science class for the 3rd time this week. He must get from one side of the school to the other by hurrying down 3 different hallways. He runs down the first hallway, a distance of 35.0 at a speed of 3.5 m/s. The second hallway is crowded with students and he covers its 4.80 m length at a speed of 1.20 m/s. The final hallway is empty and Damian covers its 60.0 m length at a speed of 5.00 m/s.

A: How long does it take him to cover the 1rst hallway? The second one? The third one?

B: Does Damian make it to class on time? By how much is he late or early?
