A particle’s velocity (in meters per second) for 0≤t≤100\le t\le 10 seconds is defined piecewise as follows: • v(t)=6v(t)=6 for 0≤t≤20\le t\le 2; • v(t)v(t) is linear from (2,6)(2,6) to (6,−2)(6,-2); • v(t)=−16−(t−8)2v(t)=-\sqrt{16-(t-8)^2} for 6≤t≤106\le t\le 10. Determine the particle’s net displacement over the interval 0≤t≤100\le t\le 10. Express your answer exactly, including π\pi if it arises, and include units.
