Question

A particle starts from origin att=0 when a velocity 5.01m/sand moves in xy plane under action of a force which produces a constant acceleration of (3.0^i+2.0^j)m/s2
(a) what is the y co-ordinate of the particle at the instant its x coordinate is 84m?
(b) What is the speed of the particle at this time?

Solution

Ux=5^i(m/s)
Uy=0(m/s)
ax=3^i(m/s2)
ay=2^j(m/s2)
(a) Sx=Uxt+12axt2
84^i=5t^i+12×3×t2^i
3t2+10t=168
3t2+10t168=0
3t2+28t18t168=0
t(3t+28)6(3t2+28)=0
(t6)(3t2+28)=0

time can't be negative.
t=6

At t=6,Sx=84^i(m)
Sy=0+12ayt2^j
=12×2×36^j
Sy=36^j

Y coordinate at (t6)36m

(b) Vx=Ux+axt
5+3×6
=23i(m/s)

Vy=0+2×6^j
=12^j(m/s)

|V|=232+122
25.94m/s$

|V|26m/s
Where |V|= Speed of particle at t=6)
