A particle starts moving along the x-axis from `t=0`, its position varying with time as `x=2t^3-3t^2+1`. a. At what time instants is its velocity zero? b. What is the velocity when it passes through the origin?

Answer» `x=2t^3-3t^2+1implies v=(dx)/(dt)=6t^2-6t`
a. Put `v=0implies0=6t^2-6timpliest=1s, t=0s`
b. `x=0implies0=2t^3-3t^2+1implies(t-1)^2(2t+1)=0`
`impliest=1s, v_(t=1s)=6xx1^2-6xx1=0ms^-1`
