The position of a particle as a function of time $t$ is given by $x(t) = at + bt^2 - ct^3$,where $a, b,$ and $c$ are constants. When the particle attains zero acceleration,its velocity will be:

  • A
    $a + \frac{b^2}{4c}$
  • B
    $a + \frac{b^2}{c}$
  • C
    $a + \frac{b^2}{2c}$
  • D
    $a + \frac{b^2}{3c}$

The speeds of two identical cars are $u$ and $4u$ at a specific instant. The ratio of the respective distances in which the two cars are stopped from that instant is

$A$ particle is moving in a straight line with initial velocity $u$ and uniform acceleration $a$. If the sum of the distance travelled in the $t^{\text{th}}$ and $(t+1)^{\text{th}}$ seconds is $100 \text{ cm}$,then its velocity after $t$ seconds,in $\text{cm/s}$,is:

$A$ car,starting from rest,accelerates at the rate $f$ through a distance $S$,then continues at constant speed for time $t$,and then decelerates at the rate $\frac{f}{2}$ to come to rest. If the total distance traversed is $15S$,then:

What is stopping distance for a vehicle? What will be the stopping distance if the initial velocity is doubled?
