Kinematics - Velocity from Acceleration

Kinematics - Velocity from Acceleration

TGM Original Questions

A particle passes a fixed point \(O\) with a velocity of \(5\) m/s and moves in a straight line with an acceleration of \(a = 2(5 - t)\) \(ms^{-2}\), where \(t\) seconds is the time after passing \(O\). Calculate

  1. the value of \(t\) when the velocity is again \(5\) m/s
  2. the displacement of the particle at this instant.
