Answer

$$ a(t)=v^{\prime}(t)= 10 \sin t +3 \cos t, \quad s(0)=0 , \quad s(2\pi)=12 $$ The position of the particle is $$ s(t)=-10 \sin t -3 \cos t +\frac{6}{\pi}t+3 $$

Work Step by Step

$$ a(t)=v^{\prime}(t)= 10 \sin t +3 \cos t, \quad s(0)=0 , \quad s(2\pi)=12 $$ The general anti-derivative of $ v^{\prime}(t)= 10 \sin t +3 \cos t, $ is $$ v(t)= -10 \cos t +3 \sin t +C $$ Since $s^{\prime }(t)=v(t)$, we antidifferentiate again and obtain $$ s(t)=-10 \sin t -3 \cos t +Ct+D $$ To determine $C, D$ we use the fact that $s(0)=0 , s(2\pi)=12 $: $$ s(t)=-10 \sin (0) -3 \cos (0) +C(0)+D =0 $$ $ \Rightarrow $ $$ -3+D=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad D=3, $$ and $$ s(2\pi)=-10 \sin (2\pi) -3 \cos (2\pi) +C(2\pi)+3 =12 $$ $ \Rightarrow $ $$ 0+C(2\pi)=12 \quad \Rightarrow \quad C=\frac{6}{\pi}, $$ Thus the position of the particle is $$ s(t)=-10 \sin t -3 \cos t +\frac{6}{\pi}t+3 $$
