Question
The velocity
of a particle moving in the xy plane is given by
(5.5 t 5.0 t²)î + 9.0 ĵ, within meters per second and t (> 0) in seconds. At t
=
= 1.4 s and in unit-vector notation, what are (a) the x component and (b) the y component of the
acceleration? (c) When (if ever) is the acceleration zero? (d) At what positive time does the speed
equal 10 m/s?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that,

The velocity v of a particle moving in the xy-plane is given by

v=5.5t-5.0t2i^ + 9.0j^

Here we have to find out the x and y components of acceleration.

Thus, the acceleration vector is given by

a=dvdt

Therefore the acceleration is

a=dvdt=(5.5-10.0t)i^ + 0j^
