Well because it has momentum and it needs to be slowed down.

The scientific term is Inertia.

"An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force."

There isn't an unbalanced force that can stop something instantly.
The object must be decelerated, due to the momentum a moving object is carrying with it.

The position coordinate of a particle which is confined to move along a straight line is given by s =2t3−24t+6, where s is measu

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

a) the answer is t=4 seconds

b) acceleration is zero

c) displacement= 142 m

Explanation:

Given the position of the particle

$s=2t^3-24t+6$

a) the time required when velocity $v=72 m/s$

$v=72=\frac{ds}{st}=6t^2-24$

now we solve for time $t$

$6t^2=72+24=96\\\\\implies t^2=\frac{96}{6}\\\therefore t=4 s$

b) acceleration when $v=30 m/s$

acceleration is the time derivative of velocity i.e

$a=\frac{dv}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}(30)=0$

c) the net displacement of the particle during the interval t = 1 s to t = 4 s is

$s_4-s_1=2t^3-24+6|_{t=4}-2t^3-24+6|_{t=1}\\s_4-s_1=126-(-16)=142 m$
