TS EAMCET · Physics · Motion In One Dimension

A particle is moving along the \(Y\)-axis. The position of the particle from the origin as a function of time \((t)\) is given as \(y(t)=10 t e^{-2 t}\). How far is the particle from the origin when it stops momentarily? ( \(y\) is given in units of metre and \(t\) is in units of second)

  1. A \(5 \mathrm{~m}\)
  2. B \(5 \mathrm{e} \mathrm{m}\)
  3. C \(\frac{5}{e} m\)
  4. D \(10 \mathrm{~m}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{5}{e} m\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The position of the particle is given as \(y(t)=10 t e^{-2 t}\) \(\ldots\) (i) Velocity of the particle is given as \(v=\frac{d}{d t} y(t)=\frac{d}{d t}\left(10 t e^{-2 t}\right)\) \(=10\left[t e^{-2 t}(-2)+e^{-2 t} \cdot 1\right]\)…
