Both move with constant speed
Writing the acceleration as a function of time:
a(t) = 1 + 3√t
Integrating acceleration, we obtain velocity:
v(t) = t + 2(t)^(3/2) + c;
object at rest so velocity at t = 0 is 0 so c = 0.
v(t) = t + 2(t)^(3/2)
Integrating velocity to obtain an equation for displacement:
d(t) = t²/2 + 4/5 t^(5/2) + c
Applying limits from t = 0 to t = 9
d = 9²/2 + 4/5 9^(5/2)
d = 234.9 m
The cart's force is only in reaction to the horse's force so it does not define direction of movement.
27.5 because of you divide the 55miles with the time you get your velocity which is the speed.
