Correct answer: C

  1. Given velocity as a function of time

    v(t)=v0+gt+ft2v(t)=v_0+gt+ft^2v(t)=v0​+gt+ft2

    We know that velocity is the time derivative of position:

    v=dxdtv=\frac{dx}{dt}v=dtdx​

  2. Find displacement from t=0t=0t=0 to t=1t=1t=1

    Since x=0x=0x=0 at t=0t=0t=0, the displacement after unit time is

    x(1)−x(0)=∫01v(t) dtx(1)-x(0)=\int_0^1 v(t)\,dtx(1)−x(0)=∫01​v(t)dt

    Substituting v(t)v(t)v(t):

    x(1)=∫01(v0+gt+ft2) dtx(1)=\int_0^1 (v_0+gt+ft^2)\,dtx(1)=∫01​(v0​+gt+ft2)dt

  3. Integrate term by term

    x(1)=v0∫01dt+g∫01t dt+f∫01t2 dtx(1)=v_0\int_0^1 dt+g\int_0^1 t\,dt+f\int_0^1 t^2\,dtx(1)=v0​∫01​dt+g∫01​tdt+f∫01​t2dt

    Now,

    ∫01dt=1\int_0^1 dt=1∫01​dt=1 ∫01t dt=[t22]01=12\int_0^1 t\,dt=\left[\frac{t^2}{2}\right]_0^1=\frac{1}{2}∫01​tdt=[2t2​]01​=21​ ∫01t2 dt=[t33]01=13\int_0^1 t^2\,dt=\left[\frac{t^3}{3}\right]_0^1=\frac{1}{3}∫01​t2dt=[3t3​]01​=31​

    Therefore,

    x(1)=v0+g2+f3x(1)=v_0+\frac{g}{2}+\frac{f}{3}x(1)=v0​+2g​+3f​

  4. Match with the options

    This corresponds to:

    C: v0+g2+f3\boxed{\text{C: } v_0+\frac{g}{2}+\frac{f}{3}}C: v0​+2g​+3f​​

  5. Compare with stored correct answer

    Stored correct answer: C

    Our derived answer: C

    So, they agree.
