Question

Transcribed Image Text:6. A particle is moving along a straight line. After t seconds the distance the particle has travelled is x cm, its
velocity is v cms- and the acceleration a of the particle is given by the differential equation
a = 0.035 v2
Given that when t= 0, then x = 0 and v= 22 cms-!, calculate the velocity of the particle when
t = 2 seconds.
