PHY 101: Introduction to Physies-1 Tutorlal-3 {Kinematics in Cartesian and plane polar co-ordinate system) 1. Accelerating car: ‘Acar, stating at rest at t=O, accelerate in a straight line for 100 meter (mn) with an unknown, constant acceleration, Itreaches a speed of 20 meter/second (ois) and then continues at this speed for another 10s, 8) Write down the equations forthe position and the velocity of the ear asa function of time. bb) How long was the car accelerating? (©) What was the magnitude of the acceleration? 4) Plot position vs time, speed vs time and acceleration vs time for the entire motion. fe) What was the average velocity for the entie tip? 2. Spiral motion: ‘A particle moves with @ = w = constant and r = roe where rand fare constants 1), Determine the values of P for which the particle moves with a= 0 (a isthe radial component of acceleration), »), For a=0, comment on the radial velocity ofthe particle. Graphical relation between position, velocity and acceleration: 4) The position x)-time (0) curve of an object moving aloug the X-axis is shown in Fig. 1 Graph the velocity ()-time (t) and the aeceleration (a)-time (1) curves for the object. Figure-L: Posit time graph ofan object moving along the X-axis, by. A simple pendulum executes "Simple harmonic motion’. Plot the position-time, the velocity-time aud the aeceleratiou-time curves on the same time scale
