Paragraph (Q17 – Q21)
The break mechanism used recoil in certain types of guns consists exotically of a piston which
is attachment to the barrel. The piston move in the fixed cylinder filled with oil. As the barrel
recoils, the piston moves and the oil is forced through orifices in the piston. This causes the
piston and the barrel to decelerate at a rate which is proportional to their velocity. In
particular, for a positive constant k, the deceleration can be given as a  kv . In the light of the
above discussion answer the following questions. ( v0 is velocity of piston at time t = 0.)

 A particle moves along X-axis. Acceleration is not uniform. Suppose in M.K. S. unit

Since acceleration is not uniform, we should use calculus to discuss its motion.
