$A$ car accelerates from rest at a constant rate $\alpha$ for some time,after which it decelerates at a constant rate $\beta$ and comes to rest. If the total time elapsed is $t$,then the maximum velocity acquired by the car is

  • A
    $\left( \frac{\alpha^2 + \beta^2}{\alpha \beta} \right) t$
  • B
    $\left( \frac{\alpha^2 - \beta^2}{\alpha \beta} \right) t$
  • C
    $\frac{(\alpha + \beta) t}{\alpha \beta}$
  • D
    $\frac{\alpha \beta t}{\alpha + \beta}$

The acceleration $a$ in $m/s^2$ of a particle is given by $a = 3t^2 + 2t + 2$,where $t$ is the time in seconds. If the particle starts with an initial velocity $v = 2\,m/s$ at $t = 0$,then the velocity at the end of $t = 2\,s$ is $............m/s$.
