Physics with Calculus
Which notation correctly represents instantaneous velocity when x(t)x(t) is a position function?
A cart moves along a track with position x(t)=2t5−t3+4t−8x(t) = 2t^5 - t^3 + 4t - 8 meters. Which expression gives its instantaneous velocity function?
An object has x(1)=7x(1) = 7 m\(\text{m}\) and velocity v(t)=3t2+2v(t) = 3t^2 + 2 m/s\(\text{m/s}\). What is x(4)x(4)?
Which unit is appropriate for acceleration in SI units?
What does the definite integral ∫t1t2a(t)dt\(\int\)_{t1}^{t2}a\(\left\)(t\(\right\))\,\(\mathrm{d}\)t represent physically?
An engineer knows a(t)a(t) and wants to reconstruct x(t)x(t). Which sequence of operations is required, along with the needed information?
