Detailed Solution
According to question, the given condition can be depicted asFor motion from A to C, s2=2ut+12a×(2t)2=2ut+2at2 …(i)Also, for motion from C to B, s2=v't+12at2=(u+2at)t+12at2 (Let initial velocity be v' = u + 2at) =ut+2at2+12at2Now, from Eq. (i), we get 2ut+2at2=ut+2at2+12at2⇒u=at2For overall motion, v=u+3at=at2+3at=7at2=7u ∵u=at2
