- A particle moves along a path according to the equations x = 9 - t4/9 and y = t2/3 where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. Determine the magnitude of the velocity (in m/s) of the particle in 1.97 seconds.arrow_forwardThe acceleration of a particle traveling along a straight line is a = (0.02el) m/s2, where t is in seconds. If v = 0, s = 0 when t = 0, determine the velocity and acceleration of the particle at s = 4 m.arrow_forwardAn object is traveling along a straight line, and the velocity of the object is defined by v = (30 - 0.03s2) m/s, where s is in meters.

Determine how far ittravels before it stops. How much time does it take?NOTE #1 – A sketch of the scenario should be created by you to enhance your work.NOTE #2 – A particle is rather uninspiring, yet they are suitable in learning engineering scienceprinciples. You are welcome to spice up this problem by replacing the particle with a rigid bodyof interest to you. You are welcome to comment on your answer how replacing abstract conceptswith tangible examples influences your learning of dynamics topics. ads = vdvarrow_forwardThe velocity of a particle which moves along the s axis is given by v = 7.5 -3.8t + 5.4t4/2, where t is in seconds and v is in meters per second.
