Compute all parts of given question:

Question: A car is traveling at 26 m/s west and, at the next overpass, zips past a stationary police officer, who immediately begins accelerating at 3 m/s². Eventually, the police officer catches up to the car, who maintains the previous speed. When the police officer and the car are side by side, the officer motions for the car to pull over,

Part A: How much time elapsed since the police officer started up?

Part B: How far did the car travel before being caught?

Part C: How fast was the police officer going when the car was finally nabbed?

I want help to find how fast the police officer going when the car was finally nabbed.
