Math Problem Statement
A cart is moving along a straight track. The cart's position x is initially zero, and its velocity v asna function of time t is described by the equation v(t) = bt^2 - ct, where b and c are positive constants. The cart is instantaneously at rest at time t = tR a) Sketch a graph of the cart's acceleration a as a function of t for the time interval shown b) Derive an expression for the cart's position xR that is negative and the farthest away from the initial position (x = 0) c) Derive an expression for the velocity v0 that the cart has when it passes through the position x = 0 at a later time t > 0
