Resistance Swimmer

A lifeguard watches a swimmer train while sitting at their chair, fixed at point O. They swim at \(v = {{params.v}}\) m/s, while they slow them at a rate of \({{params.a}}\) m/s^2\( in the moment shown. Determine the following values where \)r\( is the length between the lifeguard and swimmer, \)h = 16\( m and \)x = 11$ m.
