28.8.1 Problems of Velocity and Acceleration MODULE - V
We know that velocity 'v' and acceleration 'a' of a body at any instant are given by Calculus
velocity = rate of change of displacement

∴ v= ( s ) , where s is the displacement.

Example 28.22 A stone is dropped from the top of a tower 44.1 m high. Velocity 'v' at any
instant is given by v = 9.8 t m/s (metres per second)
If it is given that distance after one second is 4.9 m
(i) find the distance of the stone when t = 2 seconds
(ii) value of 't' when stone hits the ground.
Solution : We are given that v = 9.8 t
d
∴ ( s ) = 9.8 t
dt
On integrating both sides, we get
∫ ds = ∫ 9.8tdt
or s = 4.9t 2 + C , where C is an arbitrary constant .....(1)
It is given that s = 4.9 m when t = 1 second. Using this condition we get,
C=0
Substituting the value of C in (1), we will get
s = 4.9t2 .....(2)
(i) Putting t = 2 in (2), we get
s = 4.9 × 22 or s = 19.6 m
So it is clear that the distance of the stone in 2 seconds is 19.6 m.
(ii) Now when stone hits the ground the distance is 44.1 m. Thus, s = 44.1
Putting s = 44.1 in (2), the following will be the outcome.
44.1 = 4.9 t 2

28.8.2 Population Growth Problems
Rate of growth of population is proportional to the population. For example the bacteria

to x where x = x (t) denotes the number of bacteria present at time t. This fact can be represented
by means of the differential equation

Example 28.23 In a certain culture of bacteria the rate of increase is proportional to the
number present.
(a) If it is found that the number doubles in 4 hours, how may times is the number expected
at the end of 12 hours ?
(b) If there are 104 at the end of 3 hours and 4 × 10 4 at the end of 5 hours, how many
were there in the beginning ?
Solution : Let x denote the number of bacteria at time t hours. Then ,
dx

or = kdt .....(1)

On integrating both sides, we get

or log x = kt + log C
Note that the number x is positive.

Notes
x = x0 ( 2 ) x = 8x 0
or 3 or
Hence the growth of bacteria is 8 times the original number at the end of 12 hours.
(b) Now it is given that at t = 3, x = 104 and at t = 5, x = 4 × 10 4
Substituting these values in (2), we have
104 = Ce3k .....(4)
and 4 × 10 4 = Ce5k .....(5)
From (4) and (5), we get
4 × Ce3k = Ce5k or 4 = e 2k
1
or log 4 = 2k or k = log4
2
or k = log 4 = l o g 2
Substituting value of k in equation (4), we get

104 = Ce3 l o g 2 or 104 = Ce log2
or 104 = Ce log8 or 104 = 8C

Substituting values of C and k in equation (2), we get

Substituting t = 0 in equation (6), we will get the number of bacteria in beginning.

LET US SUM UP
• A differential equation is an equation involving independent variable, dependent variable
and the derivatives of dependent variable (and differentials) with respect to independent
variable.
• The order of a differential equation is the order of the highest derivative occurring in it.
• The degree of a differential equation is the degree of the highest derivative after it has
been freed from radicals and fractions as far as the derivatives are concerned.
• A differential equation in which the dependent variable and its differential coefficients
occur only in the first degree and are not multiplied together is called a linear differential
equation.
• A linear differential equation is always of the first degree.
• A general solution of a differential equation is that solution which contains as many as the
number of arbitrary constants as the order of the differential equation.
• A general solution becomes a particular solution when particular values of the arbitrary
constants are determined satisfying the given conditions.
