The following equation describes the instantaneous position of a particular object as a function of time t, it's initial position 7o, its initial velocity do, and its instantaneous acceleration a: 7 = 70+vot + 1t. Note: This equation is only true in certain circumstances and should not be assumed to be true for every object. a) Algebraically rearrange the equation to isolate . Note: Vector algebra is very similar to the scalar algebra you've done since middle school (except that you cannot divide by vectors). Follow the same rules of algebra you already know to isolate vo b) Use the vectors provided below and the equation you determined in (a) to graphically determine vo when t = 3. 17 +8 The following equation describes the instantaneous position of a particular object as a function of time t, it's initial position 7o, its initial velocity do, and its instantaneous acceleration a: 7 = 70+vot + 1t.
