Compute each part of given problem:

Problem: A hockey player is standing on his skates on a frozen pond when an opposing player, moving with a uniform speed of 2.0 m/s, skates by with the puck. After 1.60 s, the first player makes up his mind to chase his opponent. If he accelerates uniformly at 0.50 m/s2, determine each of the following.

Part A: How long does it take him to catch his opponent? (Assume the player with the puck remains in motion at constant speed.)

s

Part B: How far has he traveled in that time?

m

It'd be really helpful if you could show all steps of your work.
