$A$ particle initially at rest is subjected to two forces. One is constant,the other is a retarding force proportional to the particle velocity. In the subsequent motion of the particle,

  • A
    the acceleration will increase from zero to a constant value
  • B
    the acceleration will decrease from its initial value to zero
  • C
    the velocity will increase from zero to a constant value.
  • D
