Question

1. The position of a particle moving along a straight line is given by $s(t) = t^3 - 6t^2 + 9t$ where $t$ is measured in seconds and $s(t)$ in meters. Suppose $t \ge 0$. For parts (iii) and (iv), answer using interval notation: (i) Find the velocity, $v(t)$, of the particle at any time $t$. (ii) For which $t$ values is the particle at rest? (iii) Find the interval(s) for which the velocity is positive. Also find the interval(s) for which velocity is negative. (iv) Find the interval(s) for which the particle is speeding up.
