The position-time graph of a particle moving along a straight line is shown,which is in the form of a semicircle starting from $t=2 \, s$ to $t=8 \, s$. Select the correct statement.

  • A
    Velocity of the particle between $t=0 \, s$ to $t=2 \, s$ is positive.
  • B
    Velocity of the particle is opposite to acceleration between $t=2 \, s$ to $t=5 \, s$.
  • C
    Velocity of the particle is opposite to acceleration between $t=5 \, s$ to $t=8 \, s$.
  • D
    Acceleration of the particle is positive between $t=2 \, s$ to $t=5 \, s$ while it is negative between $t=5 \, s$ to $t=8 \, s$.

$A$ particle of mass $m$ is constrained to move on the $x$-axis. $A$ force $F$ acts on the particle. $F$ always points toward the position labeled $E$. For example,when the particle is to the left of $E$,$F$ points to the right. The magnitude of $F$ is constant except at point $E$ where it is zero. The system is horizontal. $F$ is the net force acting on the particle. The particle is displaced a distance $A$ towards the left from the equilibrium position $E$ and released from rest at $t=0$. The velocity-time graph of the particle is:
