Find (a) the vector position of the particle at any time t, (b) the velocity of the particle at any time t, (c) the coordinates of the particle at t = 2.00 s, and (d) the speed of the particle at t = 2.00 s.
As she picks up her riders, a bus driver traverses four successive displacements represented by the expression (6.30 b)i (4.00 b cos 40)i (4.00 b sin 40)j + (3.00 b cos 50)i (3.00 b sin 50)j (5.00 b)j Here b represents one city block, a convenient unit of distance of uniform size; i is east; and j is north. The displacements at 40 and 50 represent travel on roadways in the city that are at these angles to the main east-west and north-south streets, (a) Draw a map of the successive displacements, (b) What total distance did she travel?
