(i) A man walks in a straight line from A to B with constant acceleration 0.004 m s-2. His speed at A is 1.8 m s-1 and his speed at B is 2.2 m s-1. Find the time taken for the man to walk from A to B, and find the distance AB.

(ii) A woman cyclist leaves A at the same instant as the man. She starts from rest and travels in a straight line to B, reaching B at the same instant as the man. At time t s after leaving A the cyclist’s speed is k(200t − t2) m s-1, where k is a constant. Find

  1. the value of k,
  2. the cyclist’s speed at B.

(iii) Sketch, using the same axes, the velocity-time graphs for the man’s motion and the woman’s motion from A to B.
