Solution

The correct option is C 6s
Let t be the time of acceleration
Then retardation time =8t
total time =8 s
Let V1 be velocity after acceleration
let acceleration be a
V1=u+athereu=0V1=at(i)
none retardation =3a (given)
Hence,
V=V13a(8t)V=0,asbodycomestorestV1=3a(8t)at=3a(8t),putV1from(i)t=243t4t=24t=6second
