A truck traveling at a constant speed of 28 m/s passes a more slowly moving car. The instant the truck passes the car, the car begins to accelerate at a constant rate of 1.2 m/s^2 and passes the truck 545 m farther down the road. What was the speed of the car (in meters/second) when it was first passed by the truck?
