The velocity of a particle can be described by the function V(t) = 4 t² - 12t + 7 ( m/s) a) What is the instantaneous acceleration of the particle at t = 4? b) What is the average acceleration at time interval 3s & 5 s? c) The velocity when time is 3.5 s? d) The velocity when acceleration is zero. e) acceleration when the particles momentarily stopped or changes direction.
• We learned the set of 1D-Kinematic equations that describe the Uni- formly Accelerated Motion to be structured as "position as a function of time", "velocity as a function of time", and acceleration = constant. It is possible with some maths to make an equation WITHOUT time that re- lates jsut the distance traveled, the uniform acceleration and the speed at the beginning at the end. This equation is: 2 ad = v – vố (1) where a is the said acceleration, d is the distance, and vo and vf are the initial and the final speed respectively. For an alternative notation follow the link: 1D-Kinematics The point of this homework is not to learn a new equation, but to practice equation properties in a new format. • State the units on the LHS and the RHS. Do they match up? • As you see the person (me) throwing the stone how much is the FINAL velocity? Restate the equation (1) with that information mind: • If you did everything right then you end up with your RHS NEGATIVE (!). That means that the…
