- Here are a couple acceleration problems. Acceleration isn't necessarily constant. These problems will be pure math problems, meaning that we won't use units. a(t) = dv/dt = 146 cos(4t) v(t) = dx/dt, v(0) = -3, and x(0) = -6 Calculate x(6).arrow_forwardThe speed of an object as a function of time is given by the following equation: What is the magnitude of the object's acceleration (in m/s2) at t = 5 s?
