Question 124: Motion in 1D

Question

If the velocity of a body related to displacement x is given by $$\upsilon  = \sqrt {5000 + 24x} $$ m/s, then the acceleration of the body is .................... m/s
2
.

Accepted Answer

$$V = \sqrt {5000 + 24x} $$
$${{dV} \over {dx}} = {1 \over {2\sqrt {5000 + 24x} }} 	imes 24 = {{12} \over {\sqrt {5000 + 24x} }}$$
Now, $$a = V{{dV} \over {dx}}$$
$$ = \sqrt {5000 + 24x}  	imes {{12} \over {\sqrt {5000 + 24x} }}$$
a = 12 m/s
