Q:

The distance s of a particle moving along a straight line from a fixed-pointO on the line at time t seconds after start is given by x = (t – 1)²(t – 2)². What will be the distance of the particle from O when its velocity is zero?

A) 4/27 units B) 4/23 units
C) 4/25 units D) 4/35 units
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 4/27 units

Explanation: Let v be the velocity of the particle at time t seconds after start (that is at a distance s from O). Then,
v = ds/dt = d[(t – 1)²(t – 2)²]/dt
Or v = (t – 2)(3t – 4)
Clearly, v = 0, when (t – 2)(3t – 4) = 0
That is, when t = 2
Or 3t – 4 = 0 i.e., t = 4/3
Now, s = (t – 1)(t – 2)²
Therefore, when t = 4/3, then s = (4/3 – 1)(4/3 – 2)² = 4/27
And when t = 2, then s =(2 – 1)(2 – 2)² = 0
Therefore, the velocity of the particle is zero, when its distance from O is 4/27 units and when it is at O.

Q:

The distance x of a particle moving along a straight line from a fixed point on the line at time t after start is given by t = ax² + bx + c (a, b, c are positive constants). If v be the velocity of the particle and u(?0) be the initial velocity of the particle then which one is correct?

A) 1/v² + 1/u² = 4at B) 1/v² + 1/u² = -4at
C) 1/v² – 1/u² = 4at D) 1/v² – 1/u² = -4at

Q:

A particle moves in a straight-line OA; the distance of the particle from O at time t seconds is x ft, where x = a + bt + ct² (a, b > 0). What will be the nature of motion of the particle when c = 0?

A) Uniform retardation B) Uniform speed
C) Uniform acceleration D) Uniform velocity
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Uniform velocity

Explanation: We have, x = a + bt + ct²? ……….(1)
Let, v and f be the velocity and acceleration of a particle at time t seconds.
Then, v = dx/dt = d(a + bt + ct²)/dt = b + ct ? ……….(2)
And f = dv/dt = d(b + ct)/dt = c ?……….(3)
Clearly, when c = 0, then f = 0 that is, acceleration of the particle is zero.
Hence in this case the particle moves with an uniform velocity.
