The Truck's speed is v = 26 ms.
We are both going in the same direction.
How far does the truck travel while you’re passing it?
:
Find your speed in m/sec = 30.55 m/sec
:
Write a time equation; time = dist/speed = 5.49 secs to pass the truck
Find the distance the truck travel in this time
5.49 * 26 = 142.7 meters
