Question
A particle moves in $x y$ plane with a velocity given by $\vec{v}=(8 t-2) \hat{i}+2 \hat{j} .$ If it passes through the point $(14,4)$ at $t=2 \mathrm{scc}$, then find its cquation of the path.
Step 1
We can separate this into its x and y components to get $v_x = 8t - 2$ and $v_y = 2$. Show more…

A particle moves in the xy-plane in such a way that its path is defined by x = e^t cos t and y = e^t sin 2t. Find the speed of the particle when t = /2.
Find the location and velocity at $t=4$ of a particle whose path satisfies $$ \frac{d \mathbf{r}}{d t}=\left\langle 2 t^{-1 / 2}, 6,8 t\right\rangle, \quad \mathbf{r}(1)=\langle 4,9,2\rangle $$

${r}(t)$ is the position of a particle in the $x y$ -plane at time $t .$ Find an equation in $x$ and $y$ whose graph is the path of the particle. Then find the particle's velocity and acceleration vectors at the given value of $t .$ \begin{equation} \mathbf{r}(t)=\frac{t}{t+1} \mathbf{i}+\frac{1}{t} \mathbf{j}, \quad t=-\frac{1}{2} \end{equation}
