A powerboat, starting from rest maintains a constant acceleration. After a certain time Δt, its displacement and velocity are Δr and Δv. At time 2Δt, what will be its displacement and velocity, assuming the acceleration remains constant?

(A) 2Δr and 2Δv
(B) 2Δr and 4Δv
(C) 4Δr and 2Δv
(D) 4Δr and 4Δv

The correct option is C) 4Δr and 2Δv

Explanation:

Initially from rest means , initial velocity and displacement is zero.

AT time t = Δt ,

Displacement ( s ) = Δr

velocity ( v) = Δv

Now At t = 2Δt

By using the equation of motion

v = u + at

s = ut + ( 1/2)at²

Here ,

v ∝ t   and s ∝ t²

Increasing times by two time velocity will increase twice and displacement by four times

Displacement = 4Δr

Velocity = 2Δv

bacteria that live on the ocean floor are sustained by phytoplankton. phytoplankton, microscopic marine photosynthetic organisms, have a vastly significant role to play not only in the marine food web of which they’re part of, but also on a more global scale. despite their infinitely small size in comparison to other marine organisms, these tiny creatures occupy an immensely important ecological niche: they are the foundation of the marine food web, and as primary producers, play key roles in supporting all other organisms in the marine environment, as well as in the regulation of the earth’s climate through the sequestration of carbon, oxygen production, and other related processes. phytoplankton account for roughly half of all global primary productivity; therefore, their significance extends far beyond the marine environment alone. there is an intriguing sense of irony in the realization that these tiny living beings that often live out their existence unnoticed and undetected by the rest of the world, have such a far-reaching impact on the lives of virtually all other living organisms on the planet, particularly on those in the marine environment. the world that we have become accustomed to has been and is continuously shaped by the workings of these miniscule yet vital “plants of the sea”.

hope this !
