Question

This is a very old practice given by my teacher for extra review. 

1. Given the position function: s(t) = 2t – 21t2 + 60t, te[0,6], time in seconds, position in
metres.
a) Determine the velocity function
(1)
b) Determine the acceleration function
(1)
c) Sketch the velocity and acceleration functions on the same axes
[2]
d) Using your graphs, determine the following:
i) time(s) when the object is stopped
(6]
i) whether the object is speeding up or slowing down at t = 3 and t = 1
ii) whether the object is moving forward or backward at t = 3 andt = 6
