Question 193

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-The motion of an object traveling along a straight path is given by s(t) =12at2+v0t+s0s ( t ) = \frac { 1 } { 2 } a t ^ { 2 } + v _ { 0 } t + s _ { 0 } , where s(t) s ( t ) is the position relative to the origin at time tt . Three observed data points are given. Find the values of a,v0a , v _ { 0 } , and s0s _ { 0 } .
s(1) =19,s(3) =87,s(5) =171s ( 1 ) = 19 , s ( 3 ) = 87 , s ( 5 ) = 171


A) a=2,v0=87,s0=9a = 2 , v _ { 0 } = 87 , s _ { 0 } = - 9
B) a=4,v0=26,s0=9a = 4 , v _ { 0 } = 26 , s _ { 0 } = - 9
C) a=4,v0=87,s0=171a = 4 , v _ { 0 } = 87 , s _ { 0 } = 171
D) a=2,v0=26,s0=171a = 2 , v _ { 0 } = 26 , s _ { 0 } = 171
