A particle moves along a circular path over a horizontal xy coordinate system, at constant speed. At time t1 = 3.30 s, it is at point (4.40 m, 5.90 m) with velocity (2.70 m/s)ĵ and acceleration in the positive x direction. At time t2 = 12.0 s, it has velocity (–2.70 m/s)î and acceleration in the positive y direction. What are the (a) x and (b) y coordinates of the center of the circular path? Assume at both times that the particle is on the same orbit.

(given)
Velocity of particle = (2.70 m/s) at time t1= 3.30 s and at point (4.40 m, 5.90 m)
Velocity of particle = (-2.70 m/s) at time t2= 12.0 s
and acceleration in the positive direction.
Particle covers (3/4) whole of the circle.
Therefore,
Velocity =
L = v
where t = t2-t1=(12-3.30) = 8.7 s
