A car has stopped at a toll booth leaves the booth with a constant acceleration of 4ft/s2. At the time the car leaves the booth it is 2500ft behind a truck traveling with a constant velocity of 50ft/s. How long will it take for the car to catch the truck, and how far will the car be from the toll booth at that time?
