An object is initially moving in the x-direction at 3.7 m/s when it undergoes acceleration in the y-direction for a period of 20 s. If the object moves equal distances in the x- and y-directions during this time, what’s the magnitude of its acceleration?
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
In a particular Cartesian coordinate system, the y and z-components of the acceleration are zero and the x-component varies as given by the following function: ax(t) = 5t - 2t2 + 45e-t/F, where t is in seconds, ax is in meters per square second, and the constant F is in seconds. At t = 0, the particle was at position x = 3 m with a velocity pointing towards the positive x-axis and having magnitude 35 m/s. In the following problem you can take the constant F = 1.0 s.
Find the instantaneous velocity, in meters per second, at t = 2 s.
Find the position, in meters, of the particle at t = 1 s.
Find the position, in meters, of the particle at t = 3 s.
