Question:

The acceleration of a particle is given by a = −ks2, where a is in meters per second squared, k is a constant, and s is in meters. Determine the velocity of the particle as a function of its position s. Evaluate your expression for s = 5 m if k = 0.1 m−1s−2 and the initial conditions at time t = 0 are s0 = 3 m and v0 = 10 m /s.
