Motion in The Straight Line SPM 2008-2011

The document provides information about the motion of particles moving along a straight line based on their velocity and acceleration functions over time. It includes multiple examples from 2008-2013 with varying initial conditions and asks for calculations of acceleration, velocity, time, distance and other variables based on the information provided. The examples demonstrate applying equations of motion to real-world scenarios involving instantaneous changes in velocity and acceleration over different time periods.
