11.97 Dynamics
![Fig. P11.94
11.95 The three-dimensional motion of a particle is defined by the position
vector r = (Rt cos w,t)i + ctj + (Rt sin w„t)k. Determine the
magnitudes of the velocity and acceleration of the particle. (The
space curve described by the particle is a conic helix.)
11.96 The three-dimensional motion of a particle is defined by the
position vector r = (At cos t)i + (AVP² + 1)j + (Bt sin t)k,
where r and I are expressed in feet and seconds, respectively. Show
that the curve described by the particle lies on the hyperboloid
1, determine
(N/A)²-(x/a)²-(z/B)²
= 1. For A
=
3 and B
=
0,
(a) the magnitudes of the velocity and acceleration when t =
(b) the smallest nonzero value of t for which the position vector and
the velocity are perpendicular to each other.
