Questions  

A particle having a velocity u=u0 at t=0 is decelerated at the rate |a|=αv, where α is a positive constant.

a
The particle comes to rest at t=2v0α
b
The particle will come to rest at infinity
c
The distance travelled by the particle before coming to rest is 2v03/2α
d
The distance travelled by the particle before coming to rest is 2ν03/23α

detailed solution

Correct option is A

(1) a=-αv∴dvdt=-αvor ∫01dt=-1α∫v00v-1/2·dv∴t= 2v0α(4)a=-αv∴v.dvds=-αv∴∫0sds=-1α∫v00v1/2dv∴s=2v03/23α
