A particle is projected with velocity $v_{0}$ along $x-$ axis. A damping force is acting on the particle which is proportional to the square of the distance from the origin i.e., $ma =-\alpha x ^{2}.$ The distance at which the particle stops:

  • A

    $\left(\frac{3 v_{0}^{2}}{2 \alpha}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}$

  • B

    $\left(\frac{2 v_{0}}{3 \alpha}\right)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

Equation of motion of a body is $\frac{d v}{d t}=-4 v+8$, where $v$ is the velocity in $m / s$ and $t$ is the time in second. Initial velocity of the particle was zero. Then,

A particle experiences a constant acceleration for $20\, seconds$ after starting from rest. If it travels a distance $s_1$ in the first $10\, seconds$ and distance $s_2$ in the next $10\, seconds$, then :-

Given figure shows the $x-t$ plot of one-dimensional motion of a particle. Is it correct to say from the graph that the particle moves in a straight line for $t < 0$ and on a parabolic path for $t >0$? If not, suggest a suitable physical context for this graph.
