Solution

The correct option is B (10^i+20^j) m/s2
Given,
x co-ordinate of the particle: x=5t23t+6
y co-ordinate of the particle:y=10t2+2t+3

To find:
acceleration a at t=1 s

We know that,
Velocity, v=drdt [rdisplacement]
Acceleration , a=dvdt

Along x - axis:
vx=dxdt=d(5t23t+6)dt=(10t3) m/s

And ax=dvxdt=10 m/s2

Similarly, along y - axis :

vy=dydt=(20t+2) m/s

And ay=dvydt=20 m/s2

a=ax^i+ay^j=(10^i+20^j) m/s2

Since acceleration is uniform, so it will remain same at all the time.

Therefore, acceleration of the particle at (t=1 s)=(10^i+20^j) m/s2.

Hence, option (B) is the right choice.
