The motion of a body is given by the equation $\frac{dv(t)}{dt} = 6.0 - 3v(t)$,where $v(t)$ is speed in $m/s$ and $t$ is in $s$. If the body was at rest at $t = 0$,which of the following statements is correct?

  • A
    The terminal speed is $2.0 \, m/s$.
  • B
    The speed varies with time as $v(t) = 2(1 - e^{-3t}) \, m/s$.
  • C
    The magnitude of the initial acceleration is $6.0 \, m/s^2$.
  • D
    All of the above.
