You will use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve it.
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
c^2 = (1.5)^2 + (2)^2
c^2 = 6.25
c = square root of 6.25
c = 2.5
I hope this helps!

First, determine the speed difference between the car and truck.
95 km/h - 75 km/h = 20 km/h
Convert that speed into m/s to make a more convenient unit of measure.
20 km/h * 1000 m/km / 3600 s/h = 5.556 m/s
Now it's simply a matter of dividing the distance between the two vehicles and their relative speed.
210 m / 5.556 m/s = 37.8 s
So it will take 37.8 seconds for the car to catch the truck that's 210 meters in front of the car.</span>
Weight = (mass) x (gravity)
120 N = (mass) x (9.8 m/s²)
Mass = (120 N) / (9.8 m/s²)
Mass = 12.24 kg (B)
