 A runner is initially at rest at the starting line of a 100m race. When he hears the starting gun, he accelerates at a constant rate of ai=0.55m/s, which he maintains until he crosses the finish line at time t=t1. It then takes him an additional 5.5 s to come to a complete stop at time t=t2. Use the given coordinate system where x is positive to the right. 
 A: Enter an expression for the time, t1, that it takes for the runner to cross the finish line in terms of d and ai. 
 B: Enter an expression for the runners speed, vi, when he crosses the finish line in terms of ai and t1 only. 
 C: Calculate the runners constant acceleration, in meters per second squared, after he crosses the finish line until he comes to rest.
