Answer: the average speed of the rat from the information given above is 0.7m/s
Explanation:
position is given as
x(t) = pt² + qt
finding the diffencial of x(t) with respect to t, we have
d(x(t))/dt = 2pt + q
we substitute the p = 0.36m/s² and q= -1.10 m/s
d(x(t))/dt = 2(0.36)t + (-1.10)
so, at t= 1s
d(x(t))/dt = 2*(0.36)*1 - 1.1 = 0.72 - 1.1 = -0.38m/s
at t= 4s
d(x(t))/dt = 2*(0.36)*4 - 1.10 = 2.88 - 1.10 = 1.78 m/s
To find the average speed,
average speed = (V1 + V2)/ 2
average speed = (1.78 + (-0.38))/2 = 0.7m/s
