Suppose the velocity of a body moving along the s-axis is   = 9.8t - 6.
Is it necessary to know the initial position of the body to find the body's displacement over some time interval?  Justify your answer.
◦ Yes,  knowing the initial position is the only way to find the exact positions at the beginning and end of the time interval.  Those positions are needed to find the displacement.
◦ No, the initial position is necessary to find the curve s= f(t) but not necessary to find the displacement.  The initial position determines the integration constant.  When finding the displacement the integration constant is subtracted out.
◦ No, displacement has nothing to do with the position of the body.
◦ Yes, integration is not possible without knowing the initial position.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
