The instantaneous speed of a particle moving along one straight line is v(t) = ate−6t, where the speed v is measured in meters p

er second, the time t is measured in seconds, and the magnitude of the constant a is measured in meters per second squared. What is its maximum speed, expressed as a multiple of a? (Do not include units in your answer.)

Answer:

v_max = (1/6)e^-1 a

Explanation:

You have the following equation for the instantaneous speed of a particle:

v(t)=ate^{-6t}   (1)

To find the expression for the maximum speed in terms of the acceleration "a", you first derivative v(t) respect to time t:

\frac{dv(t)}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}[ate^{-6t}]=a[(1)e^{-6t}+t(e^{-6t}(-6))]  (2)

where you have use the derivative of a product.

Next, you equal the expression (2) to zero in order to calculate t:

a[(1)e^{-6t}-6te^{-6t}]=0\\\\1-6t=0\\\\t=\frac{1}{6}

For t = 1/6 you obtain the maximum speed.

Then, you replace that value of t in the expression (1):

v_{max}=a(\frac{1}{6})e^{-6(\frac{1}{6})}=\frac{e^{-1}}{6}a

hence, the maximum speed is v_max = ((1/6)e^-1)a
