Problem

The velocity of a body is expressed as v(t)=4t−t2v(t)=4 t - t^{2} (SI units). At what time is the acceleration zero, and what is the magnitude of the velocity at that instant? a) t=4 s,  v=4 m s−1t = 4\,\text{s},\; v = 4\,\text{m s}^{-1} b) t=2 s,  v=4 m s−1t = 2\,\text{s},\; v = 4\,\text{m s}^{-1} c) t=4 s,  v=0 m s−1t = 4\,\text{s},\; v = 0\,\text{m s}^{-1} d) t=2 s,  v=6 m s−1t = 2\,\text{s},\; v = 6\,\text{m s}^{-1}
