Solution

The correct options are
A


C


Here we are given a = 6(t-1)

Here, s = +x, v = +v

To find velocity - time relation using a = dvdt we have dvdt=6(t1) ........ (1)

When velocity changes from v0 to v during time t, integrating both sides with respect to time , we have

vv0dv=t06(t1)dtvv0=3t26t

Substituting v0=2m/s, we have ,

v=dxdt=3t26t+2

dx = 3t26t+2) dt ..... (ii)

This gives x = t33t2+2t = t (t -1) (t - 2).

The particle passes through the origin where x = 0 from equation (iii), we have t = 0, 1s and 2s.

That means, the particle crosses the origin twice at t =1s and t = 2s. Aftert = 2s, x is positive. Hence its

displacement points in positive x-direction and goes on increasing its magnitude.

The particle will come at rest when v= 0.

From (ii), we have t = (113)s(=t1,say) and t=(1+13)s = (=t2,say).

Hence the particle at t = t1andt2. That signifies to and fro motion of the particle during first two seconds

as it starts retracing its path at time t = t1 and t=t2.

The displacement (x), velocity (v) and acceleration (a) of the particle in different time intervals are given

in the followingtable and shown in the following graphs.
