The displacement $x$ of a particle varies with time $t$ as $x=a e^{-a t}+B^{\beta x}$, where $a, b, \alpha$ and $\beta$ are positive constants. The velocity of the particle will:
  1. be independent of $\beta$
  2. drop to zero when $\alpha=\beta$
  3. go on decreasing with time
  4. go on increasing with time

Solution

From question $\begin{aligned} & x=a e^{-\alpha \mathrm{t}}+b e^{\beta t} \\ & V=\frac{d x}{d t}=-a \alpha e^{-x t}+b \beta_e^{\mathrm{B}+} \\ & \Rightarrow \mathrm{V}=-a \alpha e^{-t}+b \beta \varepsilon^{\beta t} \end{aligned}$ $\therefore$ We can tell that velocity will increase with time since the negative component will decrease with an increase in time and the positive component will increase in the equation given equation.
