A lion and a pig participate in a race over a 1.10 km long course. The lion travels at a speed of 17.0 m/s and the pig can do 3.90 m/s. The lion runs for 0.880 km and then stops to tease the slow-moving pig, which eventually passes by. The lion waits for a while after the pig passes and then runs toward the finish line. Both animals cross the finish line at the exact same instant. Assume both animals, when moving, move steadily at their respective speeds.

a. How far (in m) is the squirrel from the finish line when the horse resumes the race?
b. For how long in time (in s) was the horse stationary?
