Question -

An object moves, starting from rest through a resistive medium such that its acceleration is related to velocity as

`a = 3 - 2v` Then :

Options:

A . the terminal velociy is 1.5 unit

B . the terminal velocity is 3 unit

C . the slope of `a-v` graph is not cnstant

D . initial acceleration is 2 unit.

Answer: Option A

The meaning of terminal velocity is constant velocity . For constant velocity , acceleration should be zero (i.e., a = 0)

`a = 3 - 2v`

or ` 0 = 3 - 2v`

`:.` `v = 3/2` = 1.5 unit.
