A computer model displays the motion of a particle on a coordinate system in real time. At time t = 0, the particle is at the origin of the coordinate system and has velocity components vx = 0 and vy = 6.0 m/s. The particle has acceleration components of ax = −4.8 m/s2 and ay = 0.

(Part A) What are the x and y positions of the particle, in meters, at t = 4.0 s?
 
x = ?
 
y = ?
 
(Part B) What are velocity components of the particle, in m/s, at t = 4.0 s?
 
Vx = ?
 
Vy = ?
 

 

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given

At time t = 0, the particle is at the origin

velocity components ux = 0 and uy = 6.0 m/s. acceleration components of ax = −4.8 m/s2 and ay = 0.

What are the x and y positions of the particle, in meters, at t = 4.0 s?

 
x = ?
 
y = ?
 
(Part B) What are velocity components of the particle, in m/s, at t = 4.0 s?
 
Vx = ?
 
Vy = ?
