Question: helpAn object having mass m is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. At time t = 0 ; a force is applied horizontally

helpAn object having mass m is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. At time
t=0; a force is applied horizontally to the object, causing it to move in the positive
x-direction. The force, in Newtons, is given by f(t)=12t2.
(a) Given that velocity is the change in displacement with respect to time and the
acceleration is the change in velocity with respect to time. State a second order
ordinary differential equation and two initial conditions of this problem. (Hint:
The net force on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the
acceleration of the object)
(b) Let m=1kg. Using Laplace Transform, find the velocity, v and the displacement,
x of the object at t=2 seconds.
