When particle B returns to O,

t(2t 2 – 7t – 15) = 0
t(2t + 3)(t – 5) = 0
t = 0, – 3 or 5

t = 0 and t = – 3 are not accepted

When t = 4,
aB =12(4) – 14 = 34 m s–2
2 (a) a = 12 – 6t
v = a dt
v = (12 – 6t) dt
v = 12t – 3t2 + c
When t = 0, v = 15. Thus, c = 15
∴ v = 12t – 3t2 + 15
At maximum velocity,

When t = 2,

Since the values of t cannot be negative,

When t = 5, d s = 12 – 6(5) = –18
