With the acceleration depicted in Fig. 2, a particle travels along a straight path. Plot the v-t and x-t curves for 0 < 150 < 15s. If the particle starts from the origin with an initial velocity of vo = -14 m/s, calculate (a) the particle's maximum velocity and (b) the particle's maximum position coordinate.​

Answer: Your welcome!

Step-by-step explanation:

The v-t curve for this situation is shown in Figure 3. The particle starts at t=0 with an initial velocity of -14 m/s and then gradually accelerates until it reaches a maximum velocity of 16 m/s at t=15s.

The x-t curve for this situation is shown in Figure 4. The particle starts at t=0 at the origin and then gradually moves in the positive direction due to the acceleration. The maximum position coordinate of the particle is 180 m at t=15s.

(a) The particle's maximum velocity is 16 m/s.

(b) The particle's maximum position coordinate is 180 m.
