Question

The position function for the movement of a particle is given by s=(t^3+1)^2 where s is measure in feet and t is measured in seconds. Find the of this particle at 1 second.

Answer 1

The position of particle at 1 second is 4 feet.

Explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

`s(t)=(t^3+1)^2`

where s is a position function and measure in feet and t is measured in seconds.

We have to evaluate the position at 1 second.

Putting t = 1 in the position function, we get.

`s(1)=((1)^3+1)^2\\s(1) = 4`

Thus, the position of particle at 1 second is 4 feet.
