(a) At t = 0: The particle's distance from the origin is zero. At t = 2 s: The particle's distance from the origin is 25.6 m At t = 5 s: The particle's distance from the origin is 160 m (b) $v(t) = [(10.0\hat{i}+8.0\hat{j})~t] ~m/s$ (c) At t = 0: The particle's speed is 0 At t = 2 s: The particle's speed is 25.6 m/s At t = 5 s: The particle's speed is 64.0 m/s
