(a) The position of a particle moving along a straight line is given by x = (t3 – 13.5t2 + 22.5t) m, where t is in seconds. Determine the position of the particle when t = 5 s and the total distance it travels during the 5 second time interval. Hint: Plot the path to determine the total distance travelled.

If its speed then increases according to ů = (0.06t) ms?, where t is in seconds, determine the magnitudes of its velocity and acceleration at s = 120 m. Hint: The automobile will be on the curved path so use normal and tangential components. (14 marks) 90 m 75 m Figure 1b
