Answer

$$ s=54.0 \mathrm{~m} $$

Work Step by Step

Velocity: $v_0=27 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ at $t_0=0 \mathrm{~s}$. $$ $$ $$ \begin{gathered} d v=a d t \\ \int_{27}^v d v=\int_0^t-6 t d t \\ v=\left(27-3 t^2\right) \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} &&(1) \end{gathered} $$ At $v=0$, from Eq. (1) $$ 0=27-3 t^2 \quad t=3.00 \mathrm{~s} $$ Distance Traveled: $s_0=0 \mathrm{~m}$ at $t_0=0 \mathrm{~s}$. Using the result $v=27-3 t^2$ and applying Eq. 12-1, we have $$ (+\downarrow) $$ $$ \begin{aligned} d s & =v d t \\ \int_0^s d s & =\int_0^t\left(27-3 t^2\right) d t \\ s & =\left(27 t-t^3\right) \mathrm{m}&(2) \end{aligned} $$ At $t=3.00 \mathrm{~s}$, from Eq. (2) $$ s=27(3.00)-3.00^3=54.0 \mathrm{~m} $$
