Problem

At time t=0t=0, a car moving along a straight line has velocity 16 m s−116\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-1}. It slows down with acceleration a=−0.5t m s−2a=-0.5t\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-2}, where tt is in seconds. Mark the correct statement(s). (1) The direction of velocity changes at t=8 st=8\,\text{s}. (2) The distance travelled in 4 s4\,\text{s} is approximately 58.67 m58.67\,\text{m}. (3) The distance travelled by the particle in 10 s10\,\text{s} is 94 m94\,\text{m}. (4) The speed of the particle at t=10 st=10\,\text{s} is 9 m s−19\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-1}.
