A particle P P\,P travels along a straight line through a point OOO.
At time t t\,t seconds after passing through OOO, the displacement of P P\,P from O O\,O is r r\,r metres, where r=2t3−18t2+48tr = 2t^3 - 18t^2 + 48tr=2t3−18t2+48t
Find the times at which P P\,P is instantaneously at rest.
Find the displacement of P P\,P from O O\,O at the later of these two times.
