Answer:

Fats.

Explanation:

A fat molecule which is called a Triglyceride consists of two main components which are glycerol and 3 fatty acids. Fats are solids and oils are liquids at room temperature. They also include saturated and unsaturated fats.

Cells store energy for long-term use in the form of lipids called fats which provides insulation from the environment for plants and animals.

The position of a particle moving along the x-axis depends on the time according to the equation x = ct2 - bt3, where x is in me

Sav [38]

Answer:

(a): $\rm meter/ second^2.$

(b): $\rm meter/ second^3.$

(c): $\rm 2ct-3bt^2.$

(d): $\rm 2c-6bt.$

(e): $\rm t=\dfrac{2c}{3b}.$

Explanation:

Given, the position of the particle along the x axis is

$\rm x=ct^2-bt^3.$

The units of terms $\rm ct^2$ and $\rm bt^3$ should also be same as that of x, i.e., meters.

The unit of t is seconds.

(a):

Unit of $\rm ct^2=meter$

Therefore, unit of $\rm c= meter/ second^2.$

(b):

Unit of $\rm bt^3=meter$

Therefore, unit of $\rm b= meter/ second^3.$

(c):

The velocity v and the position x of a particle are related as

$\rm v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\=\dfrac{d}{dx}(ct^2-bt^3)\\=2ct-3bt^2.$

(d):

The acceleration a and the velocity v of the particle is related as

$\rm a = \dfrac{dv}{dt}\\=\dfrac{d}{dt}(2ct-3bt^2)\\=2c-6bt.$

(e):

The particle attains maximum x at, let's say, $\rm t_o$ , when the following two conditions are fulfilled:

$\rm \left (\dfrac{dx}{dt}\right )_{t=t_o}=0.$
$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}$

Applying both these conditions,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{dx}{dt}\right )_{t=t_o}=0\\2ct_o-3bt_o^2=0\\t_o(2c-3bt_o)=0\\t_o=0\ \ \ \ \ or\ \ \ \ \ 2c=3bt_o\Rightarrow t_o = \dfrac{2c}{3b}.$
