Answer

a) $900m$ b)$60ms^{-1}$

Work Step by Step

a)Distance travelled by Tina is equal to distance travelled by David $30 t = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$ $30 = 0 +\frac{1}{2} 2t$ $ t= 30s$ thus distance travelled by David is $30t = 900m$. Same distance is travelled by Tina when she passes David b) Velocity when Tina passes David is $ v= u + at$ $ v= 0 +2*30$ $v =60ms^{-1}$
