A particle moves such that its velocity is given by v(t)=8t−2t2+t36v(t)=8t-2t^{2}+\dfrac{t^{3}}{6} (in m/s). a. (i) Derive an expression for its instantaneous acceleration a(t)a(t). b. (ii) Find the time within the first 5 s5\,\text{s} when the acceleration is zero. c. (iii) Calculate the speed of the particle at that instant.
