3 A particle moves along the x -axis so that its velocity at time t is given by At time t = 0, the particle is at position x = 1 (a) Find the acceleration of the particle at time t = 2. Is the speed of the particle increasing at t = 2? Why or why not? (b) Find all times t in the open interval 0 < t < 3, when the particle changes direction. Justify your answer. (c) Find the total distance traveled by the particle from t = 0 until time t = 3. (d) During the time interval0 t 3, what is the greatest distance between the particle and the origin? Show the work that leads to your answer.
