12–3. A particle travels along a straight line with a velocity
v = (12 – 32) m/s, where t is in seconds. When t = 1 s, the
particle is located 10 m to the left of the origin. Determine
the acceleration when t= 4 s, the displacement from t =0 to
t = 10 s, and the distance the particle travels during this
time period.
