Find the total distance traveled by a body and the body's displacement for a body whose velocity is v(t) = 6sin(3t) on the time interval [0, π/2].
Added by Felipe C.
Step 1
Given the velocity function v(t) = 6sin(3t), we need to find the total distance traveled by integrating the absolute value of the velocity function over the time interval [0, π/2]. Show more…

A body moves in a straight line with velocity $v=3 t^{2}$ at time $t .$ Calculate the distance travelled in time interval (i) $t=0 \rightarrow 1$, (ii) $t=1 \rightarrow 2$, (iii) $t=3 \rightarrow 4$.
2) Given the velocity and initial position of a body moving along a coordinate line at time t, find the body's position at time t. v = cos (pi/ 2) t, s(0) = 1

Give the positions $s=f(t)$ of a body moving on a coordinate line, with $s$ in meters and $t$ in seconds. a. Find the body's displacement and average velocity for the given time interval. b. Find the body's speed and acceleration at the endpoints of the interval. c. When, if ever, during the interval does the body change direction? $$s=-t^{3}+3 t^{2}-3 t, \quad 0 \leq t \leq 3$$
