$A$ particle moves along a straight line such that its displacement $x$ varies with time $t$ as $x = \alpha t^3 + \beta t^2 + \gamma$, where $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ are constants. $V_1$ is the average velocity of the particle during its journey between $t = 1 \ s$ and $t = 3 \ s$. $V_2$ is the instantaneous velocity of the particle at $t = 3 \ s$. The ratio $\frac{V_1}{V_2}$ is

  • A
    $\frac{27 \alpha + 9 \beta}{26 \alpha + 6 \beta}$
  • B
    $\frac{9 \alpha + 3 \beta}{18 \alpha + 4 \beta}$
  • C
    $\frac{13 \alpha + 5 \beta}{27 \alpha + 6 \beta}$
  • D
    $\frac{26 \alpha + 8 \beta}{9 \alpha + 3 \beta}$

The velocity of a particle moving along the $x$-axis is given by $V = x^2 - 5x + 4$ (in $\text{m/s}$), where $x$ denotes the $x$-coordinate of the particle in metres. The magnitude of the acceleration of the particle when the velocity is zero is:

State whether the following statements are true or false:
$(a)$ Velocity can change without a change in speed.
$(b)$ The total distance covered by a freely falling body in a given time is directly proportional to the time.
$(c)$ $A$ particle is a point object that possesses dimensions.

$A$ body of mass $0.40 \;kg$ moving initially with a constant speed of $10 \;m s^{-1}$ to the north is subject to a constant force of $8.0 \;N$ directed towards the south for $30 \;s$. Take the instant the force is applied to be $t=0$,the position of the body at that time to be $x=0$,and predict its position at $t=-5 \;s, 25 \;s, 100 \;s$.

Two buses $P$ and $Q$ start from a point at the same time and move in a straight line and their positions are represented by $X_{P}(t) = \alpha t + \beta t^{2}$ and $X_{Q}(t) = ft - t^{2}$. At what time,do both the buses have the same velocity?
