Problem

On 0≤t≤50\le t\le 5, the speed of a particle along Curve C satisfies 2≤vC(t)≤32\le v_C(t)\le 3 for every tt, while the speed of another particle along Curve D satisfies 1≤vD(t)≤41\le v_D(t)\le 4 for every tt. Can you determine which curve is longer on 0≤t≤50\le t\le 5? Provide a brief explanation supporting your answer.
