The displacement of a particle is given by y=a+bt+ct2dt4y = a + bt + ct^2 - dt^4. The initial velocity and acceleration are, respectively:

A

b,4db, -4d

B

b,2c-b, 2c

C

b,2cb, 2c

D

2c,2d2c, -2d

Step-by-Step Solution

  1. Velocity (vv): Instantaneous velocity is defined as the derivative of displacement with respect to time (v=dydtv = \frac{dy}{dt}) . Given y=a+bt+ct2dt4y = a + bt + ct^2 - dt^4. Differentiating with respect to tt: v=ddt(a+bt+ct2dt4)v = \frac{d}{dt}(a + bt + ct^2 - dt^4) v=0+b+2ct4dt3v = 0 + b + 2ct - 4dt^3.
  2. Initial Velocity: At t=0t = 0, substitute t=0t=0 into the velocity equation: vinitial=b+2c(0)4d(0)=bv_{initial} = b + 2c(0) - 4d(0) = b.
  3. Acceleration (accacc): Instantaneous acceleration is defined as the derivative of velocity with respect to time (acc=dvdtacc = \frac{dv}{dt}) . Differentiating vv with respect to tt: acc=ddt(b+2ct4dt3)acc = \frac{d}{dt}(b + 2ct - 4dt^3) acc=0+2c12dt2acc = 0 + 2c - 12dt^2.
  4. Initial Acceleration: At t=0t = 0, substitute t=0t=0 into the acceleration equation: accinitial=2c12d(0)=2cacc_{initial} = 2c - 12d(0) = 2c.
  5. Conclusion: The initial velocity is bb and the initial acceleration is 2c2c.
