Question: At t = 0 s , a particle is at rest at x 0 = 1 2 8 m . It has acceleration a =

At t =0s, a particle is at rest at x0=128m. It has acceleration a =4m/s2.
a) Determine the velocity of the particle at t =2s.
b) Determine the position of the particle at t =2s.
c) Determine the speed of the particle as it passes the point x =56m.
d) Determine the speed of the particle as it passes the point x =30m.
2. A Jeep and a motorcycle are at rest, side by side, at a stoplight. When the light turns green,
the motorcycle accelerates at 4m/s2 for 5s, while the Jeep accelerates at 2m/s2 for 10s. Once
each vehicle stops accelerating, it maintains a constant speed.
a) Determine the speed of the motorcycle at
i. t =5s
ii. t =10s
b) Determine the speed of the Jeep at
i. t =5s
ii. t =10s
c) Determine the displacement of the motorcycle at
i. t =5s
ii. t =10s
d) Determine the displacement of the Jeep at
i. t =5s
ii. t =10s
