A particle P moves in a straight line. It starts from rest at A and comes to rest instantaneously at B. The velocity of P at time t seconds after leaving A is v m/s, where v = 6t^2 - kt^3 and k is a constant.
- Find an expression for the displacement of P from A in terms of t and k.
- Find an expression for t in terms of k when P is at B.
Given that the distance AB is 108 m, find
- the value of k,
- the maximum value of v when the particle is moving from A towards B.
