Q. A particle moves along the x x -axis such that at any time t0 t \geq 0 its position is x(t) x(t) , its velocity is v(t) v(t) , and its acceleration is a(t) a(t) . You are given:\newlinex(0)=5 and v(0)=3 x(0)=5 \quad \text { and } \quad v(0)=3 \newlineWhich of the following expressions gives the distance traveled by the particle over the interval 0t7 0 \leq t \leq 7 ?\newline5+07v(t)dt 5+\int_{0}^{7} v(t) d t \newline07v(t)dt \left|\int_{0}^{7} v(t) d t\right| \newline07v(t)dt \int_{0}^{7}|v(t)| d t \newline07v(t)dt \int_{0}^{7} v(t) d t
  1. Initial Position Consideration: To find the distance traveled by the particle, we need to consider the initial position and the change in position due to the velocity over the time interval. The initial position is given by x(0)=5x(0) = 5. The change in position from time t=0t = 0 to t=7t = 7 is given by the integral of the velocity function v(t)v(t) from 00 to 77.
  2. Total Distance Expression: The expression for the total distance traveled by the particle is the initial position plus the integral of the velocity function over the given time interval. This can be written as:\newlineDistance traveled = x(0)+07v(t)dtx(0) + \int_{0}^{7} v(t) \, dt
  3. Substitution of Initial Position: Since we are given x(0)=5x(0) = 5, we can substitute this value into the expression:\newlineDistance traveled = 5+07v(t)dt5 + \int_{0}^{7} v(t) \, dt\newlineThis matches one of the given expressions.
  4. Correct Distance Expression: The correct expression for the distance traveled by the particle over the interval from 00 to 77 is therefore: 5+07v(t)dt5 + \int_{0}^{7} v(t) \, dt
