Here, we have a particle that's moving, and s of t is equal to t cubed minus 8t squared plus 3t, and that's only for t is greater than or equal to zero.
00:12
We want to find the velocity.
00:14
Well, the velocity at any given time is just the derivative.
00:17
So 3t squared minus 16t plus 3.
00:22
Now, what's the velocity after three seconds? that means let's just plug in three.
00:28
So i'm going to take three times t squared minus 16t.
00:33
18 t plus 3, and i'm going to plug in 3 for my t value.
00:38
When i do, i get negative 18, so it's going in the negative direction.
00:42
Next, i want to know when is it at rest, meaning i need to set this thing equal to 0...
