A jogger 2001-03-12
From Bill:
At time t=0 a jogger is running at a velocity of 300 meters per minute. The jogger is slowing down with a negative acceleration that is directly propotional to time t. This brings the jogger to a stop in 10 minutes.

a) write an expression for the velocity of the jogger at time t.

b) what is the total distance traveled by the jogger in that 10-minute interval.
