Please answer the ff and show the step by step solution including its units:
A high-speed aircraft takes-off in the xyz-plane and the coordinates are given by x(t) = αt, y(t) = 3.0 m − βt^2, and z(t) = αt − γt^3, where α = 2.4 m/s, β = 1.2 m/s^2, and γ = 0.6 m/s^3. Calculate:a) The velocity and acceleration vectors of the high-speed aircraft as functions of time.b) The magnitude of the high-speed aircraft’s velocity and acceleration after 2 sec.
