Flag Mechanics> motion in straight line...
question mark

the speed of a train increases at a constant rate (alpha) from zero to v and then remains constant for an interval and finally decreses to zero at a constant rate(beta).the total distance travelled by the train is L.the time taken to complete the journey is t.then t is minimum value when v equals to?

I feel question is asking for min. value of t, what is value of v?

Then ans is 0. Time will be min when body starts the motion i.e its initial velocity is asked.

 

 

Plz. do point out my error,if any.

 

Plz. approve my answer if it is right.

sorry both of you..but the answer is t=L/v+y/2(1/alpha+1/beta)

Sorry kala Chand Maiti, but you have not understood the question.
He is not asking for the time taken, but the velocity v that corresponds to the least time.
