Hello, an object is moving along the y axis and it's y position as a function of time is given by y equals constant b plus concept c t cube.
00:11
Or if we put in the values of constants b and c, the y as a function of time, let me write this more completely.
00:21
So this should be y at any time value.
00:25
So this is position y at any time value.
00:28
Okay, there.
00:30
There are four questions here.
00:32
Let's start with the first one.
00:34
What is the average velocity from one to three seconds? average velocity, excuse me, is defined as the change in the y position divided by time.
00:49
So that's going to be change in position in the y over time or final position minus the initial position.
00:59
Divided by final time minus initial time.
01:04
We need to determine the position at time one first.
01:09
So that's going to be y when time is one second.
01:13
We'll use this function here.
01:15
This is plus.
01:17
Let's just plug in the values of, let's substitute t by 1.
01:22
In other words, 2 .70 plus 2 .20 times 1 cube.
01:29
This gives us positive 4 .90 meters.
01:35
And then our second, our final y position, that's why when time is three.
01:41
Same thing.
01:43
We use the y as a function of time that's given to us.
01:47
Time here is three cubed.
01:49
And the answer here is positive 62 .1 meter.
01:55
If we imagine this, so if we say that this is the origin of the object starts from here and then it goes up okay goes up there reaches the highest point and then it goes down again so when time is one second it's already at four meters let's say this is somewhere here okay just to imagine so this is at one second this is 4 .90 from the origin after three seconds it's somewhere here let's just say at 62 .1 meters and this is time three seconds so that's how you imagine it next what is the instantaneous velocity when time is two okay this time we will determine the instantaneous velocity and the time is two seconds let's go back to the definition of instantaneous velocity as a function of time this is the time derivative of your y as a function of time so you'll be getting the derivative of the y as a function of time here let's put in the expression here this is 2 .20 t cube and we will just use a power rule okay so the derivative here with power rule we just this this this has no variable, so it means that 2 .70 is constant, hence it does not change with time.
03:42
So the derivative of a constant is of course zero.
03:46
For this one, we just multiply the exponent here, 3, 2 .20.
03:54
I'm just applying power rule here, and then we have exponent minus 1...
