    velocity and acceleration involving integration

    1. i) a particle is moving along the x axis. At time t, it is distant x from O and moving with velocity v= dx/dt. show that the acceleration dv/dt = v dv/dx. ii) the accelration of a body moving in a straight line is proportional to the velocity, i.e. dv/dt=kv, where k is a constant. when x=0...
