how would i do this... A particle moving along the x-axis has its position described by the function x=( 2.00 t^{3}- 5.00 t+ 1.00 )\; {\rm m}, where t is in s. At t= 4.00 , what are the particle's position- i calculated that to be 109m , velocity, and acceleration? i have tried for over an...

how would i do this problem... You are driving to the grocery store at 20 m/s. You are 110 m from an intersection when the traffic light turns red. Assume that your reaction time is 0.50 s and that your car brakes with constant acceleration. 1)How far are you from the intersection when you...
