Question: Step 2 We have determined that v ( t ) = t 2 6 t C . We must now determine the value of C

Step 2
We have determined that v(t)=t26tC. We must now determine the value of C. We are given that v(0)=-16. Using this allows us to solve for C as follows.
v(t)=t26tC
v(0)=026(0)C
-16=C
Substituting C=-16 into the velocity function gives the following result (in ms).
v(t)=
ms
Step 3
(b) Find the distance traveled during the given time interval.
Recall that the total distance traveled from time t1 to time t2 is given by the following.
h1t2|v(t)|dt= total distance traveled
In a previous step we determined that (t)=t26t-16. We wish to find the total distance traveled over the interval 0t5. Therefore, we must calculate the following.
05x1dt
