Q2 of 89 Page 50

A particle moves along the X-axis as x = u(t – 2 s) + a(t – 2 s)2.

The given equation is



Initial velocity is given by





Differentiating equation (1) gives acceleration shown below



At t=2s, the position of the particle is




Therefore, the particle is at origin when t=2s.
