$A$ car travels in a straight line along a road. Its distance $x$ from a stop sign is given as a function of $t$ by the equation $x(t) = \alpha t + \beta t^3$, where $\alpha = 2.0 \ m \ s^{-1}$ and $\beta = 0.01 \ m \ s^{-3}$. Calculate the average velocity of the car in the time interval $t = 2.00 \ s$ to $t = 4.00 \ s$. (in $m \ s^{-1}$)

  • A
    $2.28$
  • B
    $4.94$
  • C
    $3.34$
  • D
    $4.12$

The position of an object moving along the $X$-axis is given by $x = \alpha + \beta t^2$, where $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are constants with appropriate dimensions and $t$ is time in seconds. The average velocity between $t = 2 \ s$ and $t = 4 \ s$ is $12 \ m/s$. If $\alpha = 8 \ m$, then the value of $\beta$ is: (in $m/s^2$)
