Question

A particle moves according to the function, r → ( t ) = ( t 3 − 4 ) i ^ + ( 2 t 2 + 2 t ) j ^where r → is measured in meters.

a) What is this particle's instantaneous acceleration at t = 2 seconds?

b) What is the particle's y coordinate when its x coordinate is equal to  zero?  Please consider only positive values for the time.
