Question Number 47965 by Rio Michael last updated on 17/Nov/18

A small body is made to travel linearly t sconds after the   start.Its distance S meters from a fix point O on a   linear scale is given by S = t^2 −5t + 6.  a) How far is the body from O at the start?  b)with what velocity does it start?  c)when is the body momentarily at rest?  d) What is the acceleration of the body?
