TopicNon-constant acceleration

1 A particle P moves on the x-axis. The acceleration of P at time t seconds, \(\mathrm { t } \geqslant 0\), is \(( 3 \mathrm { t } + 5 ) \mathrm { ms } ^ { - 2 }\) in the positive x -direction. When \(\mathrm { t } = 0\), the velocity of P is \(2 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) in the positive x -direction. When \(\mathrm { t } = \mathrm { T }\), the velocity of P is \(6 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\) in the positive x -direction. Find the value of T .
