Diagram showing the vehicle's path and acceleration in two segments.
A small experimental vehicle starts from rest and accelerates with a constant acceleration \(a\) over a horizontal distance \(d\). After this distance, the vehicle's engine is adjusted such that it continues to accelerate at a constant rate of \(\dfrac{a}{2}\) for an additional horizontal distance \(d\). Which of the following expressions represents the speed of the vehicle after it has traveled the total distance \(2d\)?
