Motion In A Straight Line Ques 19

19. The displacement of a particle is represented by the following equation : $s=3 t^{3}+7 t^{2}+5 t+8$ where $s$ is in metre and $t$ in second. The acceleration of the particle at $t=1 $ $s$ is

[2000]

(a) $14 $ $m / s^{2}$

(b) $18 $ $m / s^{2}$

(c) $32 $ $m / s^{2}$

(d) zero

Answer:

Correct Answer: 19.(c)

Solution:

  1. (c) Displacement

$s=3 t^{3}+7 t^{2}+5 t+8$

Velocity $=\frac{d s}{d t}=9 t^{2}+14 t+5$

Acceleration $=\frac{d^{2} s}{d t^{2}}=18 t+14 $

Acceleration at $(t=1 s)$ $=18 \times 1+14=18+14=32$ $ m / s^{2}$
