5. A toy car of mass 0.5 kg is attached to one end \(A\) of a light elastic string \(A B\), of natural length 1.5 m and modulus of elasticity 27 N . Initially the car is at rest on a smooth horizontal floor and the string lies in a straight line with \(A B = 1.5 \mathrm {~m}\). The end \(B\) is moved in a straight horizontal line directly away from the car, with constant speed \(u \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\). At time \(t\) seconds after \(B\) starts to move, the extension of the string is \(x\) metres and the car has moved a distance \(y\) metres. The effect of air resistance on the car can be ignored. By modelling the car as a particle, show that, while the string remains taut,

1. 1. \(x + y = u t\)
   2. \(\frac { \mathrm { d } ^ { 2 } x } { \mathrm {~d} t ^ { 2 } } + 36 x = 0\)
2. Hence show that the string becomes slack when \(t = \frac { \pi } { 6 }\)
3. Find, in terms of \(u\), the speed of the car when \(t = \frac { \pi } { 12 }\)
4. Find, in terms of \(u\), the distance the car has travelled when it first reaches end \(B\) of the string.
