Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{51}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(v=\frac{d s}{d t}=6 t-\frac{t^{2}}{6}\)
On integrating both sides, we get
\(
s=3 t^{2}-\frac{t^{3}}{18}+\text { constant }
\)
Now, put \(s=0\) at \(t=0\), we get constant \(=0\)
\(
\therefore s=3 t^{2}-\frac{t^{3}}{18}
\)
Now, distance traveled in \(3 s=3(3)^{2}-\frac{(3)^{3}}{18}\)
\(
=27-\frac{27}{18}=\frac{51}{2}
\)
