The speed (v) and time (t) for an object moving along straight line are related as `t^(2)+100=2vt` where v is in meter/second and t is in second. Find the possible positive values of v.

Answer» For possible values of v, time t must be real so from `b^(2)-4acge0`
we have `(-2v)^(2)-4(1)(100)ge0`
`rArr4v^(2)-400ge0 rArr v^(2)-100ge0`
`rArr (v-10)(v+10)ge0 rArr vge10 "and" v le-10`
Hence possible positive values of v are `v ge10 m//s`.
