Question:

The curvilinear motion of a particle is defined by $v_{x}=50-16 t$ and $y=100-4 t^{2}$, where $v_{x}$ is in meters per second, $y$ is in meters, and $t$ is in seconds. It is also known that $x=0$ when $t=0$. Plot the path of the particle and determine its velocity and acceleration when the position $y=0$ is reached.
