Car Acceleration and Velocity Calculations

The document calculates various motion properties of a car traveling around a circular track. It first finds the tangential and normal components of acceleration, then uses these to find the velocity and position over time. It integrates the position function to find the total time for the car to travel one-third of the track. Finally, it calculates the magnitude of velocity and acceleration when the car has traveled this distance.
