Starting instantaneously and "jerking" are simply very high bursts of acceleration.
This analysis seems to assume the cup stays flat on the surface at all times which seems a little unlikely.
We also have no steady state speed.
As well as the acceleration there will be a deceleration and also a reduction in acceleration to zero to contend with when you get close to your final speed.
All these are difficult to judge without some experiments
