Question: A car traveling at a constant speed of 102 km/hr passes a trooper hidden behind a billboard. One second after the speeding car passes the billboard, the trooper sets in a chase after the car with a constant acceleration of 3.7 m/s2.

Part A: How far does the trooper travel before he overtakes the speeding car?

Please help for the above question, completely confused!! Show each steps if possible, Thanks.
