A particle is moving along \(x\)-axis with its position (x) varying with time (t) as \(x=\alpha {t}^{4}+\beta {t}^{2}+\gamma t+\delta\). The ratio of its initial velocity to its initial acceleration, respectively, is:
\(\gamma :2\beta\)
- Find initial velocity (v₀) and initial acceleration (a₀) from the position equation x(t).
- x = αt⁴ + βt² + γt + δ.
- Velocity v = dx/dt = 4αt³ + 2βt + γ. Initial velocity v₀ (at t=0) = γ.
- Acceleration a = dv/dt = 12αt² + 2β. Initial acceleration a₀ (at t=0) = 2β.
- Ratio v₀ : a₀ = γ : 2β.

Two cities X and Y are connected by a regular bus service with a bus leaving in either direction every T min. A girl is driving scooty with a speed of \(60\mathrm{km}/\mathrm{h}\) in the direction X to Y notices that a bus goes past her every \(30\) minutes in the direction of her motion, and every \(10\) minutes in the opposite direction. Choose the correct option for the period T of the bus service and the speed (assumed constant) of the buses.
