Answer:

[tex]v(0)=27\\ v(4)=75[/tex]

[tex]a(0)=0\\a(4)=24[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The function of the distance is equal to:

[tex]s(t)=t^{3}+27t-2[/tex]

If we have the distance function, the velocity function is the derivative of s(t). So, the velocity function v(t) is equal to:

[tex]v(t)=s'(t)\\v(t)= 3t^{2}+27[/tex]

Then, the velocity at t=0 and t=4 are calculated as:

[tex]v(0)=3(0)^{2}+27=27\\ v(4)=3(4)^2+27=75[/tex]

So, the velocity at 0 seconds is equal to 27 cm/sec and the velocity at 4 seconds is equal to 75 cm/sec

At the same way, the acceleration function is the derivative of the velocity function. So, the acceleration function a(t) is equal to:

[tex]a(t)=v'(t)\\a(t)=6t[/tex]

Then, the acceleration at t=0 and t=4 is:

[tex]a(0)=6(0)=0\\a(4)=6(4)=24[/tex]

Therefore, the acceleration at 0 seconds is equal to 0 [tex]cm/sec^{2}[/tex] and the acceleration at 4 seconds is equal to 24 [tex]cm/sec^{2}[/tex].
