The position of the particle when it changes direction is x = 3.0 m

Explanation:

The position of the particle is given by the equation

x(t)=2.4+2.9t-3.5t^2

In order to determine its position when it changes direction, we need to  find the time t at which the velocity of the particle becomes zero.

The velocity of the particle si given by the derivative of the position, therefore:

v(t)=\frac{dx}{dt}=2.9-2\cdot 3.5t^{2-1}=2.9-7t

The velocity is zero when:

v(t)=0=2.9-7t\\7t=2.9\\t=\frac{2.9}{7}=0.41 s

And therefore, the position at t = 0.41 s is

x(0.41)=2.4+2.9(0.41)-3.5(0.41)^2=3.0 m

An object at rest does not _____ and an object in motion does not _____, unless an _____ force acts upon it
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

An object at rest does not move and an object in motion does not change its velocity, unless an external force acts upon it

Explanation:

This statement is also known as Newton's first law, or law of  inertia.

It states that the state of motion of an object can be changed only if there is an external force (different from zero) acting on it: therefore

- If an object is at rest, it will remain at rest if there is no force acting on it

- If an object is moving, it will continue moving at constant velocity if there is no force acting on it

This phenomenon can be also understood by looking at Newton's second law:

F = ma

where

F is the net force on an object

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

If the net force is zero, F = 0, the acceleration of the object is also zero, a = 0: therefore, the velocity of the object does not change, and it will continue moving at the same velocity (which can be zero, if the object was at rest).
