The equation for position x (meters) for a particle moving horizontally with a constant acceleration of a = 8.128 m/s2 when the particle was initially at rest with v0 = 0 m/s and x0 = 0 meters is in the form of a second order polynomial. The value of the constant immediately preceding the t2 in that second order polynomial equation for position x (meters) is most closely:

A particle moves along the x-axis so that it’s position at any time t≥0t≥0 is given by x(t)=t3−3t2+t+1x(t)=t3−3t2+t+1. For what values of t, 0≤t≤30≤t≤3 , is the particle’s instantaneous velocity the same as its average velocity on the closed interval [0, 3]? Your solution should clearly show all steps leading to the answer as well as justification for it.
You encounter a moving walkway that is 81 m long and has a speed of 2.1 m/s relative to the ground. How long would it take you to cover the 81 m length of the walkway if, once you get on the walkway, you immediately turn around and start walking in the opposite direction with a speed of 1.6 m/s relative to the walkway? Express your answer using one significant figure.
A particle moves down a horizontal route that begins 5 feet to the right of a specific point P with an initial velocity of 4 feet per second. Another particle is going along the same route, beginning 3 feet to the left of P with an initial velocity of 8 feet per second. Consider that the accelerations of the two particles are a1(t) = 2t 3 and a2(t) = 2t 5, respectively. Will the particles collide? Justify your response

A particle P projected from a point O on horizontal ground hits the ground after 2.4 seconds.The horizontal component of the initial velocity of P is 5/3 d ms-1The speed of P as it passes over the wall is 16ms-1(d) Find the value of d correct to 3 significant figures.May I have the answer for D please as the rules is only to do 3 of them so I asked separately
After a ball rolls off the edge of a horizontal table at time t = 0, its velocity as a function of time is given by:v = 1.2 i - 9.8t jwhere v is in meters per second and t is in seconds. The ball’s displacement away from the edge of the table, during the time interval of 0.380 s for which the ball is in flight, is given by:Δ⃗r=∫00.380s⃗vdtTo perform the integral, you can use the calculus theorem:∫[A+Bf(x)]dx=∫Adx+B∫f(x)dx You can think of the units and unit vectors as constants, represented by A and B. Perform the integration to calculate the displacement of the ball from the edge of the table at 0.380 s
You are exploring a planet and drop a small rock from the edge of a cliff. In coordinates where the +y direction is downward and neglecting air resistance, the vertical displacement of an object released from rest is given by y − y0 = 1/2gplanett2, where gplanet is the acceleration due to gravity on the planet. You measure t in seconds for several values of y − y0 in meters and plot your data with t2 on the vertical axis and y − y0 on the horizontal axis. Your data is fit closely by a straight line that has slope 0.300 s2/m. Based on your data, what is the value of gplanet?
A toy frog is initially at the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system. Upon leaping, its position after a second is given by P = (5.0 cm)i + (70 cm)) + (3.0 cm) k What is the distance (in centimeter) traveled by the toy frog assuming straight-line motion?
On a spacecraft two engines fire for a time of 532 s. One gives the craft an acceleration in the x direction of ax = 4.92 m/s2, while the other produces an acceleration in the y direction of ay = 7.16 m/s2. At the end of the firing period, the craft has velocity components of vx = 3743 m/s and vy = 4808 m/s. Calculate the magnitude of the initial velocity.
A blue car of length 4.52 m is moving north on a roadway (hat intersects another perpendicular roadway (Fig. P2.81, page 58). The width of the intersection from near edge to far edge is 28.0 m. The blue car has a constant acceleration of magnitude 2.10 m/s2 directed south. The time interval required for the nose of the blue car to move from the near (south) edge of the intersection to the north edge of the intersection is 3.10 s. (a) How far is the nose of the blue car from the south edge of the intersection when it stops? (b) For what time interval is any part of the blue car within the boundaries of the intersection? (c) A red car is at rest on the perpendicular intersecting roadway. As the nose of the blue car enters the intersection, the red car starts from rest and accelerates east at 5.60 m/s2. What is the minimum distance from the near (west) edge of the intersection at which the nose of the red car can begin its motion if it is to enter the intersection alter the blue car has entirely left the intersection? (d) II the red car begins its motion at the position given by the answer to pan (c), with what speed does it enter the intersection?
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?
On a spacecraft two engines fire for a time of 389 s. One gives the craft an acceleration in the x direction of ax = 3.41 m/s^2, while the other produces an acceleration in the y direction of ay = 7.34 m/s^2. At the end of the firing period, the craft has velocity components of vx = 1860 m/s and vy = 4290 m/s. Find the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the initial velocity.
