Find the distance moved by the particle between the time at which its acceleration is zero and the time at which its velocity is zero.
On the given axes, sketch a displacement-time graph for the cyclist's journey from to , showing on your graph the distances travelled after and .
Find the time at which is instantaneously at rest, and hence find the total distance travelled by between and .
A second particle moves along another straight track, starting from a point at time . The acceleration of at time is , where . The velocity of when it leaves is .
When the velocity of is , show that the displacement of from is equal to the displacement of from .
It is given that in the interval the velocity of is always positive.
Find the distance of from at the instant when is moving at this maximum velocity.
A train travels between two stations, and . The train starts from rest at and accelerates at a constant rate until it reaches a speed of . It then travels at this constant speed for seconds, before decelerating at a constant rate, coming to rest at . The total time for the journey is .
Find the value of and hence find the distance moved by the train while travelling at the constant speed of .
