A) The initial position of the particle is 2 meters.

B) The velocity of the particle at any time t is represented by $v(t) =-2\cdot t +1$ .

C) The acceleration of the particle at any time t is represented by a(t) = -2 .

D) The velocity of the particle at the moment when $s(t) = 0\,m$ is -2 meters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) From statement we know that $s(t) = -t^{2}+t+2$ , where is the time, measured in seconds, and s(t) is the distance, measured in meters. The initial position of the particle is calculated by evaluating the function presented above at $t=0\,s$ . That is:

$s(0) = -(0)^{2}+(0)+2$

$s(0) = 2\,m$

The initial position of the particle is 2 meters.

B) According to the Theory on Kinematics, we see that velocity is the rate of change of position in time. In other words, we need to derive the equation once:

$v(t) =-2\cdot t +1$ (1)

Where is the velocity, measured in meters per second.

The velocity of the particle at any time t is represented by $v(t) =-2\cdot t +1$ .

C) And the acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in time. In other words, we need to derive the equation above:

a(t) = -2 (2)

The acceleration of the particle at any time t is represented by a(t) = -2 .

D) At first we solve the function position for s = 0 , that is:

$-t^{2}+t+2=0$ (3)

$(t-2)\cdot (t+1)=0$

The only reasonable root of the polynomial is $t = 2\,s$ .

And now we evaluated the velocity function at given result:

$v(2) = -2\cdot (2) +2$

$v(2) = -2\,\frac{m}{s}$

The velocity of the particle at the moment when $s(t) = 0\,m$ is -2 meters per second.

Answer from: Quest

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
