Question
At time t=0.0s a particle is located at x = 4.0 m and y = 1.0 m. The particle has an initial velocity
at t=0.0 s given by:
v=6.0m/si-2.0m/sj
The particle experiences a constant acceleration beginning at t=0.0s that can be described by
a = -2.0m/s² i +5.0m/s23 +3.0m/s² k
(A) On coordinate axes (x and y) show the particle initial position and draw a vector which indicates
the initial velocity of the particle.
(B) If we want to determine the position of the particle at a later time t, which physics approach or
equation(s) might we use to do so?
(C) Find the position of the particle at t=4.0 s. Express your result in terms of the position vector
in and j and k notation.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

Particle's initial position at time t=0 s is given as x=4 m and y=1 m.

Particle's initial velocity vector at time t=0 s is v=6 m/si^-2 m/sj^

Particle's acceleration vector at time t=0 s is a=-2 m/s2i^+5 m/s2j^+3 m/s2k^

To find:

(A) On coordinate axis (x any y) show particle initial position and draw particle's initial velocity vector.

(B) Which physics equation might be used to determine particle's position at a later time t.

(C) Particle's position at t=4 s in terms of position vector.
