Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The motion of the car is provided by the function x = 3t3+10t2+3t. Find its instantaneous acceleration at time = 2 seconds.
A
56 m/s2
B
32 m/s2
C
26 m/s2
D
76 m/s2
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -a(t)=ddtv(t). a ( t ) = d d t v ( t ) . Thus, similar to velocity being the derivative of the position function, instantaneous acceleration is the derivative of the velocity function.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hence, the instantaneous acceleration is 6 m/s.

Detailed explanation-3: -The instantaneous acceleration at t=3s t = 3 s is 30.5(m/s2) 30.5 ( m / s 2 ) .

Detailed explanation-4: -∴ Acceleration of the particle at t=2 s a∣∣∣∣∣t=2=2+12(2)=26 m/s2.
