Pedro is driving a motorcycle along Espana boulevard. His position X (in meters) at any given time t is given by x(t) = 1.124t2 + 6.022. Pedro's initial position is X = 6.02 m. His position at ten seconds is X = 118.42 m. His speed at ten seconds is V= 24.48 m/s. His acceleration at ten seconds is a = 2.25 m/s2. Marites is also driving her motorcycle along Espana. Her position function is of the form X(t) = Ct². what is the coefficient C if her acceleration at ten seconds is 2.04 m/s2? C= m/s4

A commuter train travels between two downtown stations. Because the stations are only 1.00 km apart, the train never reaches its maximum possible cruising speed. During rush hour the engineer minimizes the time interval t between two stations by accelerating at a rate a1 = 0.100 m/s2 for a time interval t1 and then immediately braking with acceleration a2 = 0.500 m/s2 for a time interval t2. Find the minimum time interval of travel t and the time interval t1.
