ANSWER:

Solution 18E (a).To find x position of something at time T,the formula is: 2 x(t) = 0 + v0 * t + (1/2)at Where x =i0itial position v0=initial velocity in x-direction a=acceleration t=time x(t) = 2.17 + (4.80 m/s )t (0.100)t (m) 5 5 v(t) = x(t) = 2*(4.80) t* 6 (0.*00)t = (9.6 )t (0.600)t (m/s) 4 4 a(t) = v(t) = x"(t) = 9.6 5*0.6t = 9.6 3t Pos
