To solve the problem of when the cyclist will overtake the bus, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the motion of the bus and the cyclist - The bus starts from rest and accelerates at `2 m/s²`. - The cyclist starts `96 m` behind the bus and moves towards it at a constant speed of `20 m/s`. ### Step 2: Write the equations for the distances traveled - **Distance traveled by the bus (S1)**: ...
