Q7: The vector position of a particle varies in time accord- ing to the expression r ^ =i ^ t^2j ^, where r ^ is in meters and t is in seconds.
(a) Find an expression for the velocity of the particle as a function of time.
(b) Determine the acceleration of the particle as a function of time.
(c) Calculate the particle’s position and velocity at t = s.
