Two random particles X and Y were being studied by a  individual. Upon observing, he defined the motion of the particles by ax = (5.2t — 5.2) m/s2 and ay = (11t 2- 22) m/s2 which are moving along a straight line and starting from rest at the origin s = 0. Determine (a) the total distance each has traveled in t = 5s and the (b) distance between them when t =5s
