Velocity, Acceleration & Variable Motion

A particle moving along x-axis has acceleration f, at time t, given by f = f0 (1−tT),\left(1 - \frac{t}{T}\right), where f0 and T are constants. The particle at t = 0 has zero velocity. In the time interval between t = 0 and the instant when f = 0, the particle's velocity (vx) is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. f=0f = 0 when t=Tt = T
  2. v=∫0Tf0(1−tT)dt=f0[t−t22T]0Tv = \int_0^T f_0\left(1 - \dfrac{t}{T}\right)dt = f_0\left[t - \dfrac{t^2}{2T}\right]_0^T
  3. v=f0T−f0T2=12f0Tv = f_0 T - \dfrac{f_0 T}{2} = \dfrac{1}{2}f_0 T
  4. So the answer is (c) 12f0T\dfrac{1}{2}f_0 T (positive).
