The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to find the acceleration of a particle moving along the X-axis, given its velocity function. The velocity is defined as \( v(t) = 4t^3 - 2t \). ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between displacement, velocity, and time. The velocity \( v \) is the rate of change of displacement \( x \) with respect to time \( t \): \[ v = \frac{dx}{dt} \] ### Step 2: Set up the equation for displacement. We can express the displacement \( dx \) in terms of \( dt \): \[ dx = (4t^3 - 2t) dt \] ### Step 3: Integrate to find the displacement as a function of time. To find the displacement \( x \) from the origin, we integrate the velocity function: \[ x = \int (4t^3 - 2t) dt \] Calculating the integral: \[ x = \left( \frac{4t^4}{4} - \frac{2t^2}{2} \right) + C = t^4 - t^2 + C \] Since the body starts from the origin (at \( t = 0, x = 0 \)), we find that \( C = 0 \): \[ x = t^4 - t^2 \] ### Step 4: Set the displacement equal to 2 meters. We need to find the time \( t \) when the displacement \( x \) is 2 meters: \[ t^4 - t^2 = 2 \] Rearranging gives: \[ t^4 - t^2 - 2 = 0 \] Let \( u = t^2 \). Then, the equation becomes: \[ u^2 - u - 2 = 0 \] ### Step 5: Solve the quadratic equation. Using the quadratic formula \( u = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \): \[ u = \frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 8}}{2} = \frac{1 \pm 3}{2} \] This gives us: \[ u = 2 \quad \text{or} \quad u = -1 \] Since \( u = t^2 \), we discard \( u = -1 \) and take \( u = 2 \): \[ t^2 = 2 \implies t = \sqrt{2} \text{ seconds} \] ### Step 6: Find the acceleration at \( t = \sqrt{2} \). The acceleration \( a \) is the derivative of the velocity with respect to time: \[ a = \frac{dv}{dt} \] Given \( v(t) = 4t^3 - 2t \), we differentiate: \[ a = \frac{d}{dt}(4t^3 - 2t) = 12t^2 - 2 \] ### Step 7: Substitute \( t = \sqrt{2} \) into the acceleration formula. Now we substitute \( t = \sqrt{2} \): \[ a = 12(\sqrt{2})^2 - 2 = 12 \cdot 2 - 2 = 24 - 2 = 22 \text{ m/s}^2 \] ### Final Answer: The acceleration of the particle when it is 2 meters from the origin is \( 22 \text{ m/s}^2 \).

To solve the problem step by step, we need to find the acceleration of a particle moving along the X-axis, given its velocity function. The velocity is defined as \( v(t) = 4t^3 - 2t \). ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between displacement, velocity, and time.
