Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 6

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\[ \begin{aligned} \text { } V & =\frac{d S}{d t}=\frac{d}{d t}\left(6 t-\frac{t^3}{2}\right) \\ V & =6-\frac{3}{2} t^2 \Rightarrow \frac{d V}{d t}=-3 t \\ \frac{d V}{d t} & =0 \Rightarrow-3 t=0 \\ \Rightarrow t & =0 \Rightarrow \frac{d^2 V}{d t^2}=-3 < 0 \end{aligned} \] \(V\)…
