Now we can integrate again to find the position function p (t) = ∫ v ( t ) dt. = ∫ (-15t + v ) dt=-15⋅ + v t + C =-t 2 + v t + C Since the car has not skid at all at t = 0, we have p(0) = 0, so thatt 22 15 2 1510/27/19, 9 : 26 PM Thinkwell | ExercisePage 2 of 2 answer keynext- (0) 2 + v(0) +C = 0, C = 0. Then p ( t) =- t 2 + vt .Ok, now comes the hard part. Let t s be thetime that the car finishes its skid. We know that the car skids for 80 meters, sop ( t s ) =-t s 2 + v t s = 80. We also know that when the car finishes its skid, it is motionless. v ( t s ) =-15t s + v = 0 Solving these two equations for v gives usv ≈ 49 meters/sec. 15 2 15 2 152
