$A$ car,starting from rest,accelerates at the rate $\alpha$ through a distance $d$,then continues at a constant speed for time $t$ and then decelerates at the rate of $\alpha/2$ to come to rest. If the total distance traveled is $15\, d$,then $d=$

  • A
    $d = \frac{1}{2}\, \alpha \, t^2$
  • B
    $d = \frac{1}{4}\, \alpha \, t^2$
  • C
    $d = \frac{1}{72}\, \alpha \, t^2$
  • D
    $d = \frac{1}{6}\, \alpha \, t^2$
