A particle of unit mass undergoes one-dimensional motion such that its velocity varies according to \(v(x)= βx^{- 2 n}\) where \(\beta\) and \(n\) are constants and \(x\) is the position of the particle. The acceleration of the particle as a function of \(x\) is given by:
1. \(- 2 nβ^{2} x^{- 2 n - 1}\)
2. \(- 2 nβ^{2} x^{- 4 n - 1}\)
3. \(- 2 \beta^{2} x^{- 2 n + 1}\)
4. \(- 2 nβ^{2} x^{- 4 n + 1}\)

A particle is moving such that its position coordinates (x, y) are (\(2\) m, \(3\) m) at time \(t=0,\) (\(6\) m,\(7\) m) at time \(t=2\) s, and (\(13\) m, \(14\) m) at time \(t=\) \(5\) s. The average velocity vector \(\vec{v}_{avg}\) from \(t=\) 0 to \(t=\) \(5\) s is:
1. \({1 \over 5} (13 \hat{i} + 14 \hat{j})\)
