Pursuit to the instant that they catch up to the speeder

Reference no: EM13674989

A speeder traveling at 0.60 c passes a police car. After a 2.0 s reaction time, the police take off at 0.80 c in pursuit of the speeder. How much time will elapse in the reference frame of the speeder among the instant that the police begin their pursuit to the instant that they catch up to the speeder?
