    A particle moves in a straight line so that \[s=\sqrt{t}\], then its acceleration is proportional to                    [MP PET 2004]

    A)            Velocity

    B)            (Velocity)3/2

    C)            (Velocity) 3

    D)            (Velocity)2

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               Given \[s=\sqrt{t}\]. Now  \[v=\frac{ds}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{t}}\]            Also \[a=\frac{dv}{dt}=\frac{-1}{2\times 2{{(t)}^{3/2}}}\]Þ \[a\propto \frac{1}{t\sqrt{t}}\]or \[a\propto {{v}^{3}}\].
