a. Fastest speed at x >= 8m. The fastest ACCELERATION is at x=6m
b. Speed is 5 m/s
Initial velocity is 3.0 m/s
Initial energy is 9 Joules.
Area under curve is 16 Joules
Energy at 8m is 9+16 = 25 joules
And for a particle that masses 2 kg to have 25 joules,
it needs a velocity of 5 m/s
Remember, area of triangle is 1/2 base * height. And the curve above is a triangle with base = 8 meters, height = 4 Newtons.
And Kinetic energy is E = 1/2 M V^2

A. Particle is moving fastest at x = 8m
B. Particle's velocity at x=8m is 5.0 m/s
A. The force the particle experiences ramps up from 0 to 4 Newtons, then ramps down to 0 Newtons. Since no frictional forces are mentioned, all of the forces applied to the particle accelerates it. So its maximum velocity is reached after 8 meters and it will continue on at that velocity forever.
B. We need to calculate the area under the graph which since it's a triangle is 1/2 base times height. The base is 8 meters and the height is 4 Newtons. So the total area is
0.5 * 8m * 4N = 16 Nm = 16 kb m^2/s^2
Now the particle's initial velocity is 3.0 m/s, and it's initial kinetic energy is 0.5 M V^2, so
E = 0.5 2kg (3m/s)^2
E = 1 kg * 9 m^2/s^2
E = 9 kg m^2/s^2
Given the 16 Nm added, the energy at x=8m will be
9 Nm + 16 Nm = 25 Nm
And using the formula for kinetic energy, substitute the known values, and solve for V.
25 Nm = 0.5 * 2 kg * V^2
25 Nm = 1 kg * V^2
25 kg m^2/s^2 = 1 kg * V^2
25 m^2/s^2 = V^2
5 m/s = V
