2.Motion in Straight Line
medium
The velocity of a body depends on time according to the equation $v=\frac{t^2}{10}+20$. The body is undergoing
A
Uniform acceleration
B
Uniform retardation
C
Non-uniform acceleration
D
Zero acceleration
Solution
(c)
$v=\frac{t^2}{10}+20$
To find acceleration find $\frac{d v}{d t}$
So, $a=\frac{d v}{d t}=\frac{2 t}{10}+0$
$\Rightarrow a=\frac{t}{5} \Rightarrow a \propto t$
$\because a$ is a function of time so it is not constant, rather it is non-uniform.
