The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to analyze the motion of the body along the x-axis given its velocity function and initial position. ### Step 1: Understand the velocity function The velocity of the body is given by: \[ v(t) = 5 \sin(2t) \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 2: Determine the time intervals when the body crosses the origin The body crosses the origin when its position \( x(t) \) becomes zero. We start with the initial position: \[ x_i = -2.5 \, \text{m} \] ### Step 3: Find the expression for position To find the position as a function of time, we need to integrate the velocity function: \[ x(t) = x_i + \int v(t) \, dt \] Substituting the velocity: \[ x(t) = -2.5 + \int 5 \sin(2t) \, dt \] ### Step 4: Perform the integration The integral of \( 5 \sin(2t) \) is: \[ \int 5 \sin(2t) \, dt = -\frac{5}{2} \cos(2t) + C \] To find the constant \( C \), we evaluate at \( t = 0 \): \[ x(0) = -2.5 = -\frac{5}{2} \cos(0) + C \implies -2.5 = -\frac{5}{2} + C \implies C = -2.5 + 2.5 = 0 \] Thus, the position function becomes: \[ x(t) = -2.5 - \frac{5}{2} \cos(2t) \] ### Step 5: Set the position function to zero to find crossing times To find when the body crosses the origin: \[ 0 = -2.5 - \frac{5}{2} \cos(2t) \] Rearranging gives: \[ \frac{5}{2} \cos(2t) = -2.5 \implies \cos(2t) = -1 \] ### Step 6: Solve for \( t \) The cosine function equals -1 at: \[ 2t = (2n + 1) \pi \quad \text{for integers } n \] Thus: \[ t = \frac{(2n + 1) \pi}{2} \] For \( n = 0, 1, 2, \ldots \), we find the times: - For \( n = 0 \): \( t = \frac{\pi}{2} \) - For \( n = 1 \): \( t = \frac{3\pi}{2} \) - For \( n = 2 \): \( t = \frac{5\pi}{2} \) - For \( n = 3 \): \( t = \frac{7\pi}{2} \) ### Step 7: Count the number of crossings in the interval [0, 2.5] We need to check which of these times are less than or equal to 2.5 seconds: - \( \frac{\pi}{2} \approx 1.57 \) - \( \frac{3\pi}{2} \approx 4.71 \) (exceeds 2.5) - \( \frac{5\pi}{2} \approx 7.85 \) (exceeds 2.5) - \( \frac{7\pi}{2} \approx 11.00 \) (exceeds 2.5) Thus, the body crosses the origin **twice** in the interval [0, 2.5]. ### Step 8: Calculate the displacement in 2.5 seconds The net displacement after 2.5 seconds can be calculated by evaluating \( x(2.5) \): \[ x(2.5) = -2.5 - \frac{5}{2} \cos(5) \] Using a calculator, find \( \cos(5) \) and substitute it in to find the exact displacement. ### Conclusion 1. The body crosses the origin **twice** in the interval [0, 2.5]. 2. The displacement at \( t = 2.5 \) seconds can be calculated from the expression derived.

To solve the problem step by step, we need to analyze the motion of the body along the x-axis given its velocity function and initial position. ### Step 1: Understand the velocity function The velocity of the body is given by: \[ v(t) = 5 \sin(2t) \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 2: Determine the time intervals when the body crosses the origin The body crosses the origin when its position \( x(t) \) becomes zero.
