Based on experimental observations, the acceleration of a particle is defined by the relation a = -(0.1

Question:

Based on experimental observations, the acceleration of a particle is defined by the relation a = -(0.1 + sin x/b), where a and x are expressed in m/s2 and meters, respectively. Knowing that b = 0.8m and that ν = 1 m/s when x = 0, determine 

(a) The velocity of the particle when x = -1 m,

(b) The position where the velocity is maximum,

(c) The maximum velocity.
