  1. Look, I learn how to track mosquitoes in my Calc 2 class : Question 2. [8 marks] Suppose that a mosquito flies with acceleration given by a(t) = ( 2 sin t) i + (2 cos t) k at time t. Its initial velocity is v(0) = 2i + 5j. (a) Find the velocity of the mosquito at time t. (B) Determine the total distance traveled by the mosquito from t = 0 to t = pi. How useful...

      Oh, I didn't know that I can solve calculus II stuff. (a) One should integrate the acceleration for t and add v(0) instead of the constant; (B) Simply distance of the two points in the double integral according to Pythagoras' Theorem and with no requirement to consider the constant.

      But maybe it is the mosquito which gives me inspiration: once it attempts to string me I will take it easy and derive its position. P,S., as I squash it and it collapses to the ground, is that an asym...
