JEE MainPhysicsModerateMotion in 1D

Position of a particle moving on x-axis as a function of time t
is given by

x=(t3−6t2+3t+4)x = \left( t^{3} - 6t^{2} + 3t + 4 \right)meter.
What is the velocity of the particle when its acceleration is zero?

Show answer and solution
v=3t2−12t+3v = 3t^{2} - 12t + 3
a=6t−12=0a = 6t - 12 = 0
⇒t=2sec⁡\Rightarrow t = 2\sec
v(t=2sec)=−9m/sv(t = 2sec) = - 9m/s
