An object has an initial velocity of 29.0 m/s at 95.0° and an acceleration of 1.90 m/s2
at 200.0°. Assume that all angles are measured with respect to the positive x-axis.
(a) Write the initial velocity vector and the acceleration vector in unit vector notation.
(b) If the object maintains this acceleration for 12.0 seconds, determine the average
velocity vector over the time interval. Express your answer in your unit vector
notation.
The position vector of a cat running on a field is given by: x(t) = 3t 2 − 4t + 2 y(t) = 6t 2 − 5t where x, y are in meters and t is in seconds.
(a) Compute the magnitude and direction of the average velocity in the time interval between t = 0 and t = 3 seconds.
(b) Find the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the cat at t = 2 and at t = 4 seconds
A cannon ball is fired with an initial speed of 123 m/s at angle of 60 degrees from the horizontal.
Express the initial velocity as a linear combination of its unit vector components.
( m/s) + ( m/s)
At the maximum height, the speed of the cannon ball is v = ? m/s and the magnitude of its acceleration is a = ? m/s2.
The time needed to reach maximum height is t = ? s.
The maximum height reached by the cannon ball is H = ? m.
