Tangent at point

P\left(t, t^3\right)

on the curve

y=x^3

meets the curve again at point

Q

. If a point on

P Q

divides it internally in the ratio

1: 2

, then the coordinates of that point are

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

\left(0,-2 t^3\right)

Option A

\left(0,-2 t^3\right)

is correct because it represents the coordinates of the point that divides the line segment PQ in the ratio 1:2 internally.
