Q1 FREE PREVIEW

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:

a

\(2\alpha :\delta\)

b

\(\gamma :2\delta\)

c

\(4\alpha :\beta\)

d

\(\gamma :2\beta\)

✓ Correct answer: d)

\(\gamma :2\beta\)

Explanation
  • 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.
