The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the given information and derive the necessary equations. ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between velocity and position The velocity of the particle is given by the equation: \[ v = \sqrt{x} \] We know that velocity \( v \) can also be expressed as: \[ v = \frac{dx}{dt} \] Thus, we can equate the two expressions: \[ \frac{dx}{dt} = \sqrt{x} \] ### Step 2: Rearrange the equation for integration Rearranging the equation gives: \[ dx = \sqrt{x} \, dt \] To facilitate integration, we can express this as: \[ \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x}} = dt \] ### Step 3: Integrate both sides Now, we will integrate both sides: - The left side will be integrated from the initial position \( x = 4 \) to \( x \). - The right side will be integrated from \( t = 0 \) to \( t \). The integration gives: \[ \int_{4}^{x} \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x}} = \int_{0}^{t} dt \] Calculating the integrals: - The left side: \[ 2\sqrt{x} \bigg|_{4}^{x} = 2\sqrt{x} - 4 \] - The right side: \[ t - 0 = t \] Setting these equal gives us: \[ 2\sqrt{x} - 4 = t \] ### Step 4: Solve for \( x \) Rearranging the equation: \[ 2\sqrt{x} = t + 4 \] \[ \sqrt{x} = \frac{t + 4}{2} \] Squaring both sides yields: \[ x = \left(\frac{t + 4}{2}\right)^2 \] ### Step 5: Substitute \( t = 2 \) seconds to find \( x \) Now, we can substitute \( t = 2 \) seconds into the equation: \[ x = \left(\frac{2 + 4}{2}\right)^2 = \left(\frac{6}{2}\right)^2 = 3^2 = 9 \, \text{meters} \] ### Step 6: Determine the acceleration To find the acceleration, we first need to find the velocity as a function of time: From the expression for \( x \): \[ x = \left(\frac{t + 4}{2}\right)^2 \] Differentiating \( x \) with respect to \( t \): \[ v = \frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}\left(\frac{t + 4}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2\left(\frac{t + 4}{2}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \frac{t + 4}{2} \] Now, differentiating \( v \) with respect to \( t \) to find acceleration: \[ a = \frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{1}{2} \] ### Step 7: Analyze the results 1. At \( t = 2 \) seconds, the position \( x = 9 \) meters (Correct). 2. The acceleration \( a = \frac{1}{2} \, \text{m/s}^2 \) (Incorrect statement in the question). 3. The acceleration is constant at \( \frac{1}{2} \, \text{m/s}^2 \) (Correct). 4. The particle will never go in the negative direction from its starting point (Correct). ### Final Answers: - The correct options are: - 1st option: Correct (9 meters at \( t = 2 \) seconds). - 2nd option: Incorrect (acceleration is \( \frac{1}{2} \, \text{m/s}^2 \)). - 3rd option: Correct (acceleration is \( \frac{1}{2} \, \text{m/s}^2 \)). - 4th option: Correct (particle never goes negative).

To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the given information and derive the necessary equations. ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between velocity and position The velocity of the particle is given by the equation: \[ v = \sqrt{x} \] We know that velocity \( v \) can also be expressed as: \[ v = \frac{dx}{dt} \] Thus, we can equate the two expressions: ...
