1. (40) A high-performance aircraft is competing in a race where it must fly through a series of gates. The aircraft passes through the first gate in the left part of the diagram with the acceleration given below. It passes through the second gate 4.0 s later. The aircraft completes this turn with constant acceleration Derive equations for the aircraft's position and velocity as functions of time. Then, use them to find an equation that you can use to graphically construct the aircraft's velocity at the first gate. Graphically construct the aircraft's velocity vector at the first gate in the grid at the right. Draw the aircraft's velocity vector at its location as it passes through the first gate in the grid at the left. Label all vectors
