Practice question
Question
A particle’s position is given by x\=2t+t2 and y\=3t−2t2 (in meters and seconds). What is its speed at t\=2s?
Explanation
Velocity: vx=dxdt=2+2t,vy=dydt=3−4t. As per NCERT Chapter 3, equations v=u+at, s=ut+½at², v²=u²+2as describe uniformly accelerated motion. Applying correct signs and units gives 6 m/s as the result, so option A is correct.
