The particle P starts from rest at point A at time t=0 and changes its speed thereafter at a constant rate of 2g as it follows the horizontal path shown. Determine the magnitude and direction of the total acceleration of the particle P at times t= 0.8 s and t=1.2 s. Show the solution given that answer is: t= 0.8 s: a= 73.1 m/s2, θx= -59.7° t=1.2 s: a= 19.62 m/s2, θx= 180°

Question

The particle P starts from rest at point A at time t=0 and changes its speed thereafter at a constant rate of 2g as it follows the horizontal path shown. Determine the magnitude and direction of the total acceleration of the particle P at times t= 0.8 s and t=1.2 s.

Show the solution given that answer is:

t= 0.8 s: a= 73.1 m/s2, θx= -59.7°

t=1.2 s: a= 19.62 m/s2, θx= 180°
