A) 5.0 m/s 30 m/s C) 2.5 m/s 0.80 m/sarrow_forwardThis question came up on my homework and I am having a lot of trouble with it. I know how to answer the first part (part a) through antidifferentiation but after that the two parts b and c are very unfamiliar and I have no idea where to start. Any tips? The velocity at time t of an object moving along an axis is t^3 − 3t. (a) Compute the net displacement between t = 0 and t = 3. (b) During what time intervals was it moving forward (resp. backward)? (c) What was its total distance traveled?arrow_forwardTwo children are riding on a merry- go- round. Child A is at a greater distance from the axis of rotation than child B. Which child has the larger tangential acceleration? O Child A Child B They have the same zero centripetal acceleration. They have the same non-zero centripetal acceleration.

- Cheetahs running at top speed have been reported at an astounding 114 km/h (about 71 mi/h) by observers driving alongside the animals. Imagine trying to measure a cheetah’s speed by keeping your vehicle abreast of the animal while also glancing at your speedometer, which is registering 114 km/h.You keep the vehicle a constant 8.0 m from the cheetah, but the noise of the vehicle causes the cheetah to continuously veer away from you along a circular path of radius 92 m.Thus, you travel along a circular path of radius 100 m. (a) What is the angular speed of you and the cheetah around the circular paths? (b) What is the linear speed of the cheetah along its path? (If you did not account for the circular motion, you would conclude erroneously that the cheetah’s speed is 114 km/h, and that type of error was apparently made in the published reports.)arrow_forwardAs you drive down the road at 18 m/s, you press on the gas pedal and speed up with a uniform acceleration of 1.07 m/s2 for 0.60 s. If the tires on your car have a radius of 33 cm, what is their angular displacement during this period of acceleration?arrow_forward.
