Given:

x=t^2(t+1)=t^3+t^2.
Differentiating on both side
w.r.t. t => dx/dt=3t^2+2t then double differentiation: d^2x/dt^2=6t+2.

X = t^3 + t^2.
dx/dt = 3t^2 + 2t.
dx^2/dt^2 = 6t + 2.

How this is possible ? the double differentiation of equation is 6t+2.

x = t2(t+1).

= t3+t.

dx/dt = 3t2+1.

d2x/dt2 = 6t+0.

d2x/dt2 = Acceleration.

So acceleration = 6t.

x = t2(t+1).

x = t3+t2.

dx/dt = 3t2+2t.

d2x/dt2 = 6t+2.

This is the required answer of the acceleration of at the any instant of time t.

x = t^2(t + 1)= t^3+t^2.
V=dx/dt = 3t^2+2t.
a = dV/dt = 6t+2.

Answer is D.

If x = t^2(t+1).
i.e; x = t^3+t^2.

Velocity v=dx/dt. i.e; 3t^2+2t.

And then acceleration a=dv/dt. i.e; 6t+2.

So the ans is no doubt option D. 6t+2.

x = t2(t+1).
x = t3+t2.

dx/dt = 3t2+2t.
d2x/dt2 = 6t+2.

This is the required answer of the acceleration but acceleration negative sign indicated.

x = t^2 (t+1).
x = (t^3)+(t^2).
dx/dt = 3*t^2 + 2*t.
dx^2/dt^2 = 6t + 2.

Saurabh said:   1 decade ago
x = t^2(t+1).
x = t^3+t^2.

dx/dt = 3*t^2+2*t.
d^2x/dt^2 = 6t+2.

So answer is 6t+2 not 6t-2.
