Compute all parts of following question given below:

Question: You are driving you: car along a country road at a speed of 23.9 m/s. As you come over the crest of a hill, you notice a farm tractor 39.1 m ahead of you that is going at a speed of 10.0 m/s. You immediately slam on your brakes and slow down with a constant acceleration of magnitude 7.00 m/s².

Part A: Will you hit the tractor before you stop?

Part B: How far will you travel before you stop or collide with the tractor?

Part C: If you stop, how far is the tractor in front of you when you finally stop?
