1. v(t)=2sin(2πt)

2.
s(t) =- (1)/(\pi) cos(2\pi t ) -(1)/(\\\pi ^(2) )

3. t =
(1)/(2)

4. - 0.41994

5. 0.41994

Velocity Function v(t)

The velocity is the integral of the acceleration with respect to time. Given the acceleration function a(t)=
4cos(2\pi t)}, we can find the velocity function v(t) by integrating a(t) with respect to t:


v(t) = \int\limits {a(t)} \, dt


v(t) = \int\limits {4cos(2\pi t)} \, dt

Integrating, we get:

v(t)=2sin(2πt)+C

Since the initial velocity is given as v=0 at t=0, we can find the constant

C=0, and the velocity function is:

v(t)=2sin(2πt)

Position Function s(t):

The position is the integral of the velocity with respect to time. Given the velocity function v(t), we can find the position function s(t) by integrating v(t) with respect to t:


s(t) = \int\limits {v(t)} \, dt


s(t) = \int\limits {2sin(2\pi t)\, dt

Integrating, we get:


s(t) =- (1)/(\pi) cos(2\pi t ) +C_(2)

Given the initial position s(0) =
-(1)/(\\\pi ^(2) )


-(1)/(\\\pi ^(2) ) =- (1)/(\pi) cos(2\pi t ) +C_(2)

So,
C_(2) =-(1)/(\\\pi ^(2) ) and the position function is:
s(t) =- (1)/(\pi) cos(2\pi t ) -(1)/(\\\pi ^(2) )

First Positive Time t when the Particle is Stationary:

The particle is stationary when the velocity v(t) is equal to zero. Set

v(t)=0 and solve for t:

v(t)=2sin(2πt)


v(0)=2sin(2\pi t)

This occurs when

2πt=kπ, where k is an integer. The first positive solution is t =
(1)/(2)

Displacement after One Second:

To find the displacement after one second, evaluate the position function

s(t) at t=1


s(1) =- (1)/(\pi) cos(2\pi ) -(1)/(\\\pi ^(2) ) = - 0.41994

Total Distance Traveled after One Second:

To find the total distance traveled, consider the absolute value of the displacement, since distance is a scalar. The total distance traveled after one second is ∣s(1)∣


|s(1) =- (1)/(\pi) cos(2\pi ) -(1)/(\\\pi ^(2) )| = 0.41994
