Expert Solution
Step 1

We have given 

x=kξ   and    y= 2k [ 1 - eξ ]

position vector is given by 

(r)  = xi +yj  

     =( kξ )i + 2k [ 1 - eξ ] j

now velocity  V(ξ)=dr¯dξ=ddξ{( kξ )i + 2k [ 1 - eξ ] j}

V(ξ)=ki - 2keξ j

V(ξ)=k( i -2e0.5 j) 

V(ξ)=k2+(-2keξ)2

V(0.5)=k2+(-2ke0.5)2

V(0.5)=k 1+4e ..............(1)
