Number 4 part a b and c show all step
1) The position of an object as a function of time is given by
r(t) = (3.00 t² – 2.00 t) î – 1.00 t³ j m. Find: (a) its velocity at t=2.00 s; (b) its
acceleration at t=4.00 s; (c) its average acceleration between =1.00 s and t= 3.00 s.
2) At t=0 a particle at the origin has a velocity of 15.1 m/s at 36° above the horizontal x axis.
At t = 5.00 s it is at x = 21.0 m and y= 35.0 m and its velocity is 30.0 m/s at 53° above the
horizontal. Find: (a) its average velocity; (b) its average acceleration.
3) Personnel at an airport control tower track a UFO. At 11:02 a.m. it is located at a
horizontal distance of 2.00 km in the direction 30'N of E at an altitude of 1200 m. At
11:15a.m. the location is 1.00 km at 45° S of E at an altitude of 800 m. What was the
displacement of the UFO? Express your result in component notation.
