Problem

A bus and a truck travel along the same straight road for

10\,\text{s}

. a. (a) The bus keeps a constant velocity of

12\,\text{m/s}

. Calculate the distance it covers in

10\,\text{s}

. b. (b) The truck moves at

8\,\text{m/s}

for the first

4\,\text{s}

and then at

16\,\text{m/s}

for the next

6\,\text{s}

. Calculate the total distance it covers in

10\,\text{s}

. c. (c) Which vehicle covers the larger distance in this interval?
