A body is projected from the origin 0 and moves in a straight line such that its displacement from 9 , t seconds after projection, is s metres where s=t^3/3 - 6t^2 + 50t. The velocity of the body , u m/sec., t seconds after projection is given by ds/dt. ? For what value of t is the body moving with minimum velocity and how far from 0 is the body at this time?
WELCOME TO OPEN STUDY
minimum and maximum application
just differentiate it
s=t^3/3 - 6t^2 + 50t
ds/dt = v
do a 2nd derivative to check the minimum
if u take the second derivatite it will be acceleration
if f'' x>0 then its the minimum
Thank you all! I ve tried to dif many times, just cannot get the correct answer sorry (such that its displacement from 0) t shoulb be 6!
Once again, thanks
I ve solved T, its really 6!
