Expert Solution
Step 1

Since you have posted question with multiple subparts, so per the guidelines, we are solving first three subparts (a), (b) and (c) for you. To get the answers of the remainig subparts, please post the question again with a new request.

 

The equation for position of an object is,

x(t)=16t-6t2+2

(a)

Now, calculate position of the object at t = 2 s.

x(2 s)=16×2-622+2          =32-24+2          =10

Similarly, calculate the position of the object at t = 0 s.

x(0 s)=16×0-602+2          =2

We know that displacement = final position - initial position

Therefore,

Calculate the displacement of the object at t = 2 s

 displacement=(position of object at t=2 s)-(position of object at t=0 s)                        =x(2 s)-x(0 s)                        =10-2                        =8

Therefore, displacement at t=2 s is 8 m.
