Specific Suggestions for Student's Needs 针对学生需求的具体建议
Calculus Application & Algebra: 微积分应用与代数:
-
When dealing with piecewise acceleration, always write down the boundary condition equation ($v(t_1)$ must match for both functions) before solving for C. 处理分段加速度时,总是在求解C之前写下边界条件方程($v(t_1)$ 必须与两个函数匹配)。

Kinematics Interpretation: 运动学解释:
-
For total distance, ensure you check when $v=0$ and calculate the displacement for *each segment* separately, then add the absolute values. 对于总位移,请确保检查 $v=0$ 的时间点,并分别计算*每一段*的位移,然后相加其绝对值。
