Question
Physics Question on speed and velocity
The distance travelled by a particle is related to time t as x=4t2 The velocity of the particle at t−5s is:-
A
8ms−1
B
20ms−1
C
25ms−1
D
40ms−1
Answer
40ms−1
Explanation
Solution
The correct answer is (D) : 40ms−1
x=4t2
v=dtdx=8t
At t=5sec
v=8×5=40m/s
