Q2. A particle moves along a straight line so that after t (seconds), its distance from O a
fixed point on the line is S (meters), where S=t - 9t
i) When is the particle at O?
ii) What is the particle velocity and acceleration at these times?
iii) What is its average velocity during the first second?
iv) What is its average acceleration between t = 0 and t = 3?
