A Honda Civic travels in a straight line along a road. Its distance $x$ from a stop sign is given as a function of time $t$ by the equation $x(t)=\alpha t^{2}-\beta t^{3},$ where $\alpha=1.50 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ and $\beta=$ 0.0500 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{3} .$ Calculate the average velocity of the car for each time interval: $(\mathrm{a}) t=0$ to $t=2.00 \mathrm{s} ;$ (b) $t=0$ to $t=4.00 \mathrm{s}$ ; (c) $t=2.00$ s to $t=4.00 \mathrm{s}.$
A Honda Civic travels in a straight line along a road. The car's distance $x$ from a stop sign is given as a function of time $t$ by the equation $x(t) = \alpha{t^2} - \beta{t^3}$, where $\alpha =$ 1.50 m/s$^2$ and $\beta =$ 0.0500 m/s$^3$. Calculate the average velocity of the car for each time interval: (a) $t =$ 0 to $t =$ 2.00 s; (b) $t =$ 0 to $t =$ 4.00 s; (c) $t =$ 2.00 s to $t =$ 4.00 s.
