A time varying force, `F=2t` is acting on a particle of mass `2kg` moving along x-axis. velocity of the particle is `4m//s` along negative x-axis at time `t=0`. Find the velocity of the particle at the end of 4s.

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Given force is a funciton of time.
So, linear impulse can be obtained by integration. Further, this impulse is equal to change in linear momentum.
Thus, `J=intFdt=Deltap=p_f-p_i=m(v_f-v_i)`
or `v_f=1/mintFdt+v_i=1/2int_0^4(2t)dt-4` `(v_i=-4m//s)`
`=1/2[t^2]_10^4-4=1/2[16-0]-4`
`=+4m//s`
Therefore, the final velocity is `4m//s` along positive x-direction.
