An object is at rest at (8 ,1 ,5 )(8,1,5) and constantly accelerates at a rate of 7/4 m/s^274ms2 as it moves to point B. If point B is at (6 ,5 ,2 )(6,5,2), how long will it take for the object to reach point B? Assume that all coordinates are in meters.

t=2,48" s"t=2,48 s

Explanation:

"first; let's find distance between the point of(8,1,5) and (6,5,2)"first; let's find distance between the point of(8,1,5) and (6,5,2)

s=sqrt((6-8)^2+(5-1)^2+(2-5)^2)s=(68)2+(51)2+(25)2

s=sqrt((-2)^2+4^2+(-3)^2)=sqrt(4+16+9)=sqrt(29)" m"s=(2)2+42+(3)2=4+16+9=29 m

"now ; let's use the equation of "s=1/2*a t^2now ; let's use the equation of s=12at2

sqrt29=1/2*7/4* t^229=1274t2

t^2=(8*sqrt29)/7t2=8297

t^2=(8*5,39)/7t2=85,397

t=2,48" s"t=2,48 s
