ap-calculus-ab · USA · free-response Variable acceleration (1D) Two-particle comparison problem
Two runners, $A$ and $B$, run on a straight racetrack for $0 \leq t \leq 10$ seconds. The graph above, which consists of two line segments, shows the velocity, in meters per second, of Runner $A$. The velocity, in meters per second, of Runner $B$ is given by the function $v$ defined by $v ( t ) = \frac { 24 t } { 2 t + 3 }$.
(a) Find the velocity of Runner $A$ and the velocity of Runner $B$ at time $t = 2$ seconds. Indicate units of measure.
(b) Find the acceleration of Runner $A$ and the acceleration of Runner $B$ at time $t = 2$ seconds. Indicate units of measure.
(c) Find the total distance run by Runner $A$ and the total distance run by Runner $B$ over the time interval $0 \leq t \leq 10$ seconds. Indicate units of measure.
