Question: The relation \(3t = \sqrt{3x} + 6\) describes the displacement of a particle in one direction where ...

The relation 3t=3x+63t = \sqrt{3x} + 6 describes the displacement of a particle in one direction where xx is in metres and t in sec. The displacement, when velocity is zero, is

A

24 metres

B

12 metres

C

5 metres

D

Zero

Answer

Zero

Explanation

Solution

3t=3x+63t = \sqrt{3x} + 63x=(3t6)\sqrt{3x} = (3t - 6)3x=(3t6)23x = (3t - 6)^{2}

x=3t212t+12x = 3t^{2} - 12t + 12

∴ v = dxdt=ddt(3t212t+12)=6t12\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(3t^{2} - 12t + 12) = 6t - 12

If velocity = 0 then, 6t12=06t - 12 = 0 t=2sec\Rightarrow t = 2sec

Hence at t = 2, x = 3(2)2 – 12 (2) + 12 = 0 metres.
