Answer:


\textsf {v = 20 m/s}


\mathsf {a = 16 m/s^2}

Step-by-step explanation:


\textsf {To find velocity, let's differentatiate x :}
\implies \mathsf {v = (dx)/(dt) }


\mathsf {v = (d)/(dx)(t^(3)+2t^(2)+4) }


\mathsf {v = 3t^(2) +4t +0 }
\textsf {(By applying law of differentiation)}


\textsf {Substitute t = 2 :}


\mathsf {v = 3(2)^(2) + 4(2) }


\textsf {v = 12 + 8}


\textsf {v = 20 m/s}


\textsf {To find acceleration, let's differentatiate v :}
\implies \mathsf {a = (dv)/(dt) }


\mathsf {a = (d)/(dx)(3t^(2)+4t) }


\textsf {a = 6t + 4}


\textsf {Substitute t = 2 :}


\textsf {a = 6(2) + 4}


\textsf {a = 12 + 4}


\mathsf {a = 16 m/s^2}
