a position X=5t^3-3t^2 then the acceleration of the particle when velocity becomes zero is
Answers
x = 5t³-3t²
we know,
instantaneous velocity v = dX/dt = 15t²-6t
A/Q
15t²-6t = 0
15t² = 6t
t = 6/15s
and
instantaneous acceleration a = dv/dt = 30t -6
Instantaneous acceleration is the acceleration when velocity approaches to zero.
acceleration when velocity becomes zero = 30×6/15 -6 = 6m/s²

Given:
Position of particle,x= 5t³-3t²
To Find:
Acceleration of the particle when velocity becomes zero
Solution:
We know that,
- Velocity of a body 'v' is given by
v = dx/dt
- Acceleration of a body 'a' is given by
a = dv/dt
where,
x is the displacement of particle at time t
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Let the velocity of given particle be v and acceleration of given particle be a
So,
v= dx/dt
v= d(5t³-3t²)/dt
v= 5(3t²)-3(2t)
v= 15t²-6t
At v=0
15t²-6t= 0
3(5t²-2t)= 0
5t²=2t
5t= 2
t= 2/5 sec
So, at t= 2/5 sec, velocity of particle is zero
Now,
a= dv/dt
a= d(15t²-6t)/dt
a= 15(2t)-6(1)
a= 30t-6
At t= 2/5 sec
a= 30(2/5) -6
a= 12-6
a= 6m/s²
Hence, acceleration of the particle when velocity becomes zero is 6 m/s².
