    Twins Art and Ben compete in a 200-m (straight track) race. Take t=0 as their common start time. Art accelerates at 0.50 m/s2. Ben accelerates at 0.45 m/s2 for the first 50 m then at 0.75 m/s2 for the remainder of his path to finish line. What are the finish times for winner and runner-up? Note: Ben has an initial velocity as he ends the first quarter of his path.
