The acceleration of a particle is defined by the relation n a = k (1āˆ’ eāˆ’ x), where k is a constant. Knowing that the velocity of the particle is v = +9 m/s when x = āˆ’3m and that the particle comes to rest at the origin, determine

(a) The value of k,

(b) The velocity of the particle when x = āˆ’ 2 m.
