A particle moves along a line. At time t (in seconds), the particle's velocity is v(t) = t² - 3t+2 (in m/s). Find the particle's net displacement and total distance traveled over the time interval [-1, 6]. Net displacement = Total distance traveled = 899 (m) (m) To understand the terms "net displacement" and "total distance travelled," imagine a particle that moves from x = 0 to z = 2, then back to = 1. Its net displacement is 1, since it started at position 0 and ended at position 1. Its total distance travelled is 3, since it moved 3 units all together. A particle moves along a line.
