The bobsled needs to be accelerated first through a 50 meter push and then the team need to find a way to maintain their velocity to be the fastest.
This video gives an example of someone trying to find the height of their bedroom by using acceleration and velocity. This also incldues an explanation of the different aspects of integrals, velocity graphs, displacement curve, integral of acceleration, and the power rule in order for someone to solve the example. Additionally, the Crash Course video explains how to use constants in the equation.
