A particle leaves the origin with its initial velocity given by v=14.6i+12j m/s, undergoing constant acceleration a=-2.2i+0.34j m/s2. When does the particle cross the y axis?
At t=0 a particle leaves the origin with a velocity of 5 m/s in the positive y direction. It's acceleration is given by a=(3i-2j)m/s^2 .at the instant the particle reaches its maximum y coordinate how far is the particle from the origin?
If a particle moves such that y=x2 , and the x velocity is a non-zero constant
v=b, if the initial y-velocity is zero, find the time (in terms of b) when the angle of the velocity is 26.56 degrees above the horizontal.
