A particle moves along the x-axis with an initial velocity vx 50 ft/sec at the origin when t= 0. For the first 4 seconds it has no acceleration, and thereafte it is acted on by a retarding force which gives it a constant acceleration ax = -10 ft/sec2. Calculate the velocity and the x-coordinate of the particle for the conditions of t 8 sec and t= 12 sec and find the maximum positive x- coordinate reached by the particle
