The displacement ' $\mathrm{S}$ ' of a moving particle at a time $t$ is given by $S=5+\frac{48}{t}+t^3$. Then its acceleration when the velocity is zero, is
  1. $12$
  2. $20$
  3. $16$
  4. $24$

Solution

Given, $S=5+\frac{48}{t}+t^3$ Velocity $(V)=\frac{d S}{d t}=0-\frac{48}{t^2}+3 t^2$ $\begin{aligned} \therefore \quad & V=\frac{-48}{t^2}+3 t^2 ...(i)\\ & \text { But } V=0 ...[Given]\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{-48}{t^2}+3 t^2=0 \\ & \Rightarrow t=2 \end{aligned}$ Now, $\mathrm{A}=\frac{\mathrm{dV}}{\mathrm{dt}}$ $\begin{aligned} & =\frac{d}{d t}\left(\frac{-48}{t^2}+3 t^2\right) \\ & =\frac{96}{t^3}+6 t \end{aligned}$ Acceleration at $\mathrm{t}=2$ is $\frac{96}{8}+12=24$
