Instantaneous acceleration
Question

A particle starts from rest with acceleration 2m/s2.  The acceleration of the particle decreases down to zero uniformly during the time interval of 4 s. The velocity of the particle after 2 s is

Difficult
Solution

Since variation of acceleration is uniform so, a=mt+c.

According to the problem, at t = 0, a=2m/s2.

   2=m×0+c  c=2.

When t=4s,  a=0     0=m×4+2    m=12.

  a=t2+2     0vdv=1202t  dt  +  202dt    v=3m/s.
