Question

The position of a particle moving along the x axis is given in
centimeters by x =9.75 + 1.50t3, where t is in seconds. Calculate (a)
the average velocity during the time interval t = 2.00 s to t = 3.00 s;
(b) the instantaneous velocity at t  2.00 s; (c) the instantaneous velocity
at t = 3.00 s; (d) the instantaneous velocity at t = 2.50 s; and
(e) the instantaneous velocity when the particle is midway between
its positions at t =2.00 s and t = 3.00 s. (f) Graph x versus t and indicate
your answers graphically.
