A billionaire wants to construct a high-speed train that will carry him between Seattle and Los Angeles (about 2000 km) in 2 hours. He wants the most comfortable ride possible.Some physicists have proposed that the least uncomfortable way to travel a distance \( D \) in time \( T \) follows a specific mathematical form. The position \( s(t) \) at time \( t \) is given by\[ s(t) = 3 \cdot A \cdot t^2 - 2 \cdot B \cdot t^3 \]---(a) The expression for \( s(t) \) must have dimensions of length. The constants \( A \) and \( B \) are two different combinations of the distance \( D \) and time \( T \). Use dimensional analysis to determine these combinations. (The numerical factors are already correct. All that remains is to determine the combination of \( D \) and \( T \) with the appropriate units.)(b) Find symbolic expressions for velocity \( v(t) \) and acceleration \( a(t) \) as functions of time for the journey described by \( s(t) \). Use your results from part (a) to show that all the units work out.(c) Use your result from part (a) to determine the constants \( A \) and \( B \) for the billionaire's journey.(d) Make separate plots of \( s(t) \), \( v(t) \), and \( a(t) \). Neatness counts! Compare the plots and try to make sense of them. For example, the velocity should be positive while distance is increasing, acceleration should be negative when the train is slowing down, etc. Identify specific regions of your plot and make such comparisons.(e) Find the maximum speed and maximum acceleration during the journey.Keep going after you find the maxima. "One G" is the approximate acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the earth: 9.8 m/s\(^2\). How many G's must the billionaire endure during the train ride? Does this sound comfortable?

Given:Displacement fucntion of the journey is s(t) = 3At2 - 2Bt3where A and B are constants

In class, we used a numerical method to determine the velocity of an object at 0s and = t = 2.00 s given that the object had started from rest at t accelerated at a rate given by a(t) = (8.00 m/s^)t². Here's what we did: 1. Divided t into four intervals of 0.5 s each. 2. For each interval, calculated the average a. These were the numerical values we obtained for each time interval: 1 0.25 0.50 i t (s) a; (m/s²) After summing the values according to: 2 0.75 4.50 3 1.25 12.50 lim ã‚At, 2 V₂v₁ = limast. t₁ At→0 we arrived at the approximate value v = 21.0 m/s. 4 1.75 24.50 a (m/s²) 32.00+ 24.00 16.00 8.00 0 ā₁ 0 ā2 az as 0.50 1.00 1.50 2.00 t (s) 21.33 m/s.

This should demonstrate that with more sampling, the AUC (area under the curve) value converges toward the analytical…

sketch what you think the speed time graph would look like for a vehicle that begins at 10 m/hr. and remains at that speed for 10 minutes. Label this section A. Then the vehicle (over a five-minute interval) increases speed from 10 to 20 m/hr. Label this section B. Then immediately the vehicle begins to slow down. It takes the vehicle 10 minutes to slow down from 20 m/hr. to zero. Label this section C. This graph would have 3 intervals. The first interval (A) is from 0 to 10 minutes. The second interval (B) is from 10 minutes to 15 minutes. The third interval (C) is from 15 minutes to 25 minutes. The x-axis needs to go from zero to 25 minutes. The y axis needs to go from zero to 20 m/hr. Describe the motion of the vehicle in each interval as increasing, decreasing, constant, or at rest.
