Example Question #37 : Applications In Physics

If and , what is the original position function?

 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First, set up the integral expression:

Now, integrate. Remember to raise the exponent by 1 and put that result on the denominator. Also remember to add a C because it is an indefinite integral:

Plug in your initial conditions to solve for C: 

Plug back in for C and get your position function:
