The acceleration of a particle as a function of time is given as a= kt, where, a is linear acceleration in m/s2, k is proportionality constant in m/s3 and t is time inseconds. At countdown time t= 0 second, the velocity of a particle v=3 m/s. Knowing the condition that both the velocity and position are zero at countdown time t=5 seconds; write down the final general equations of motion of the particle as a function of time.

Most important in an investigation of an airplane crash by the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board is the data stored on the airplane’s flight-data recorder, commonly called the “black box” in spite of its orange coloring and reflective tape.The recorder is engineered to withstand a crash with an average deceleration of magnitude 3450 g during a time interval of 6.49 ms. In such a crash, if the recorder and airplane have zero speed at the end of that time interval, what is their speed at the beginning of the interval?
