An athlete wants to run a 1500m race with an average velocity of 6.00 m/s. After running the first 500m, he notices that the time elapsed is 100 seconds. Panicking, he accelerates for “t” seconds at 0.2 m/seconds^2 and finishes the race at his new faster speed. He makes it just in time. How long did he accelerate for? (Use 5 significant figures in the answer)
