A target is made of two plates, one of wood and the other of iron. The thickness of the wooden plate is $4\,cm$ and that of iron plate is $2\,cm$. A bullet fired goes through the wood first and then penetrates $1\,cm$ into iron. A similar bullet fired with the same velocity from opposite direction goes through iron first and then penetrates $2\,cm$ into wood. If $a_1$ and $a_2$ be the retardations offered to the bullet by wood and iron plates respectively, then

Equation of motion of a body is $\frac{d v}{d t}=-4 v+8$, where $v$ is the velocity in $m / s$ and $t$ is the time in second. Initial velocity of the particle was zero. Then,
