(a) Fill in the following table showing the velocity of the car every second. Fill in a zero velocity for any time after that at which the car comes to a rest.
(b) When does the car come to a stop? at
Using your table, find left and right sums which estimate the total distance traveled before the car comes to rest. Which is an overestimate, and which is an underestimate? The ? left sum right sum is an underestimate, and is = The ? left sum right sum is an overestimate, and is =
(c) On a sheet of paper, sketch a graph of velocity against time. On the graph, show an area representing the distance traveled before the car comes to rest. Use the graph to calculate this distance. distance =
(d) Now find a formula for the velocity of the car as a function of time: velocity = and then find the total distance traveled by antidifferentiation. distance =
