Position of a frictionless block as a function of time sliding down a parabola. Please write a user-defined function in Matlab to solve for the position of a frictionless block as a function of time when it slides down a parabolic track y :0.0009(-350)2. Determine the total time it takes for the block to reach the bottom (x 350 cm) this exercise we will approximate the parabolic track as series of inclined ramps and use During the kinematic equations assuming constant acceleration to solve for the time required to travel each linear segment. Note that the final velocity of the previous segment will be the initial velocity of the next segment. Please build calculations in Excel first and then write a user-defined function in Matlab. Your function file should provide 3 figure plots: y vs. x, x vs. t, and y vs. t. Also it should return the value of the total time required for the block to travel down the track
