the velocity of certain particle moving along x axis is proportional to x at time t=o particle is at x=2 and t=10 particle is at x=4 find positon at x=5s

Question

Ramesh V · Answer

given v proportional to x

so, v=kx where v=dx/dt

dx/dt = kx

on integrating both sides ,we have

ln x = kt + c

here k,c are unknowns

at t=0 , x=2

t=10 , x=4

t=5 , x = ??

from above

ln 2 = c .......(1)

ln 4 = 10k + c .....(2)

ln x = 5k + c ....(3)

on solving gives , x=8^1/2
