Chapter 2, Problem 6Q
At t = 0, a particle moving along an x axis is at position x0 = −20 m. The signs of the particle’s initial velocity v0 (at time t0) and constant acceleration a are, respectively, for four situations: (1) +, +; (2) +, −; (3) −, +; (4) −, −. In which situations will the particle (a) stop momentarily, (b) pass through the origin, and (c) never pass through the origin?

A particle starts from the origin at t 0 with a velocity of 8.0 m/s and moves in the xy plane with constant acceleration (4.0 2.0 ) m/s2.When the particle’s x coordinate is 29 m, what are its (a) y coordinate and (b) speed?
A particle travels along the path y2 = 4x with a constant speed of v = 4m/s. Determine the ‘x’ and ‘y’ componentsof the particle's velocity when the horizontal distance of the particle is at x = 4-m.
A particle acceleration is given by a(t) = At2 + Bt − C where A, B, and C are constants. At t = 0, the particle starts its motion at the origin with initial velocity v0. Find the position and speed of the particle as a function of time.
