Part A The position of the particle is given by s = (0.469t^2 - 3.75t + 6) m, where t is in seconds. (Figure 1) Determine the time when the velocity of the particle is zero. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. t = [Value] [Units] Part B Determine the total distance traveled by the particle when t = 5.79 s . Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. ?s = [Value] [Units]

Step 1
The velocity function is the derivative of the position function, so we can find it by taking the derivative of s with respect to t: v = ds/dt = d/dt(0.469t^2 - 3.75t + 6) Show more…
