The displacement of a particle starting from rest at t = 0 is given by s = 9 t 2 - 2 t 3 . The time in seconds at which the particle will attain zero velocity is
Options
- A8   s
- B6   s
- C4   s
- D3   s
Correct answer
D. 3   s
Step-by-step solution
The velocity of particle is, v = d s d t = d 9 t 2 - 2 t 3 d t = 18 t - 6 t 2 When particle attains zero velocity, v = 18 t - 6 t 2 = 0 18 t - 6 t 2 = 0 ⇒ 6 t 3 - t = 0 ⇒ t = 0   and   t = 3 Therefore, after 3   s the particle will attain zero velocity.
