Answer:
(i) 15 m, 6 m/s
(ii) 90 m
Step-by-step explanation:
(i) For some acceleration (a) from rest, the distance covered (d) in time t is ...
d = (1/2)at^2
The distance covered by Ben in the 5 seconds he is accelerating is ...
d = (1/2)(1.2 m/s²)(5 s)² = 15 m
Of course, Ben's speed at that point is ...
s = (1.2 m/s²)(5 s) = 6 m/s
__
(ii) When Ben has been walking 5 s, Alan has been walking 10 s, so Alan has covered (10 s)(4 m/s) = 40 m. Their distance difference of 40 -15 = 25 m is being made up at the rate of their speed differences: (6 m/s) -(4 m/s) = 2 m/s.
It will take (25 m)/(2 m/s) = 12.5 s additional time for Ben to catch Alan. In the 22.5 s that Alan has been walking before they meet, he will have walked ...
(22.5 s)(4 m/s) = 90 m . . . the distance OP

Answer:
970m^{2}
Step-by-step explanation:
This polygon can be divided in two figures: one is a triangle, an the other one is a square.
We'll begin calculating the triangle's area, using the following formula:
Where:
As you can see, I added both sides of the triangle that measure 9 m and also the lenght of the square that measures 20 m! This added up is what the base of the triangle measures on total.
Now we are going to calculate the square's area, that is much more simple:
Where:
To know the whole figure's area, we add up both areas:
