The correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION

(i) Given, displacement-time equation of a particle P

Velocity of particle at time can be obtained by differentiating Eq. (i) w.r.t. time i.e.,

At
(ii) Differentiating Eq. (ii) w.r.t. time t , we get the acceleration,

As acceleration is a function of time, the motion is non-uniformly accelerated.
(iii) Substituting in Eq. (ii), we have

Positive value of comes out to be from this equation. Substituting in Eq.
(i), we have,
