Question 14

A particle moves along a straight line and passes through a fixed point . Its velocity, , at a time instant after passing is given by . The particle stops at points P and R [Assume motion to the right as positive.] (a) Find the minimum velocity, in , of the particle.

(b) Calculate the distance, in m, between point P and point R.

(c) Sketch the velocity-time graph for . Next, determine the range of values ​​when the velocity of the particle increases.
