can ou check my answer, i got -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3 , not -3

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

distance s which your particle has travelled, is given by the subsequent integral: \[s(t)=\int\limits_{0}^{3}(t ^{2}-4)dt\] since, by definition, we have: \[\frac{ ds }{ dt }=v(t)\] so, please solve that integral

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

oops...s not s(t)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

sorry, this formula: \[v(t)=t ^{2}-4\] is right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

I think that there is an error in your formula v(t)=t^2-4 is it possible?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

because I got s=-3 which is impossible!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got -3 first also

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

ok!, I understand, then position of our particle is that: |dw:1420148165296:dw|

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

so our particle has made a distance of 3

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

it is 3, since distance has to be Always positive, whereas the final point where is our particle, is (-3,0)

thanks!
