Ruben is driving way over the speed limit at a constant 50 m/s and passes a parked police car. In order to catch Ruben to give him a ticket, the police car accelerates at a rate of 2.44 m/s How much time passes before Ruben is overtaken by the police car? (Hint: Overtaken means the same distance at the same time)
How far does Ruben get before being overtaken by the cop?

Explanation:

I feel it... I feel it... I feel it! I know what to do, when im about to p, i go to the potty pull my underpants down. And I sit and wait, I sit and wait, I sit and wait, I sit and wait until the poop plops out! Then I wipe and wipe till brown leaves town, put it in the potty and flush it down! Bye bye pp! Bye bye pp! Then i pull up my pants, wash my h

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
