document.write( "Question 205740: Hi all, thanks for all your help so far; ive almost gotten through my vectors stuff, but I need help with the following question:
\n" ); document.write( "A particle with mass m = 2.5 is moving along a straight trajectory. The distance covered by a particle is described by the function S(t) = t^3 + 2t^2 where t>0 is the time.
\n" ); document.write( "a) Kinetic Energy E of a particle is given by E = mv^2/2, where v is the particle speed. Find a function that describes the kinetic energy of this particle.
\n" ); document.write( "I know its a little long, I cant seem to make sense of it thouh, so any help will be awesome.
\n" ); document.write( "Thnaks, -Nick.
\n" ); document.write( "
