(b) What is her average velocity over the entire trip?
A particle's position on the x axis of Fig. 2-1 is given byx = 4 - 27t + t3,with x in meters and t in seconds.(a) Because position x depends on time t, the particle must be moving. Find the particle's velocity function v(t) and acceleration function a(t).(b) Is
?there ever a time when v = 0
The acceleration of a particle is defined by the relation a= -k/v, where k is a
constant. Since it is known that X=0 m and V=81 m/s at t=0 and V=36 m/s when
X= 18 m;

- The position of a particle moving along the x-axis is given by x(1) = 4.0 – 2.0t m. (a) At what time does the particle cross the origin? (b) What is the displacement of the particle between t = 3.0 s and t = 6.0 s?arrow_forwardIn this problem you will determine the average velocity of a moving object from the graph of its position x(t)x(t) as a function of time ttt. A traveling object might move at different speeds and in different directions during an interval of time, but if we ask at what constant velocity the object would have to travel to achieve the same displacement over the given time interval, that is what we call the object's average velocity. We will use the notation vave[t1,t2]vave[t1,t2] to indicate average velocity over the time interval from t1 to t2. For instance, vave[1,3]vave[1,3] is the average velocity over the time interval from t=1 to t=3. find V(ave) [0,3]arrow_forwardA particle moving along a straight line decelerates according to a = -kv, where k is a constant and v is velocity.
