Answer

Distance: $6 \mathrm{m}$ Displacement: $6 \mathrm{m}$

Work Step by Step

The displacement is an integral of the absolute value of the velocity that was evaluated over the given interval. \[ \begin{array}{l} \text { Distance }=\int_{4}^{9}\left|\frac{3}{\sqrt{t}}\right| d t \\ =\int_{4}^{9}\left(\frac{3}{\sqrt{t}}\right) d t \\ =6 \mathrm{m} \end{array} \] Displacement is an integral of the velocity that was evaluated over the given interval. \[ \text { Displacement }=\int_{4}^{9}\left(\frac{3}{\sqrt{t}}\right) d t=6 \mathrm{m} \]
