Question

Question:
A motorcycle starts from rest at s equals 0 and travels along a straight road. Its speed is given by a piecewise v–t graph with three segments. From t equals 0 to 4 seconds, velocity equals 1.25 times t meters per second, increasing linearly from rest to 5 meters per second. From t equals 4 to 10 seconds, velocity is constant at 5 meters per second. From t equals 10 to 15 seconds, velocity equals negative t plus 15 meters per second, decreasing linearly back to zero. Determine the total distance the motorcycle travels until it stops at t equals 15 seconds, and describe the shapes of the a–t and s–t graphs.
