Question 1
Velocity = -2 m/s
Acceleration = -12 m/s2

Question 2
Part a
Velocity = 12.96 m/s
Acceleration = 1.28 m/s2

Part b
Max. Velocity = 14.67 m/s occurs at t = 6.67 s

Question 3
Part a
Velocity = -1.777 m/s
Acceleration = -11.2 m/s2

Part b
Max. Velocity = 2.513 m/s occurs at t = 0 s
Acceleration = 0 m/s2

Question 4
Part a
Velocity = -2.13 er + 6.64 eθ m/s

Part b
Velocity = -5.90 i + 3.71 j m/s

Question 5
Part a
••
r = -2.73 m/s2
Acceleration = -82.362 er + -51.2 eθ m/s2

Part b
Acceleration = -30.2 i – 120.1 j m/s2

Question 6
Part a
Velocity = 130 et m/s
Acceleration = -4 et + 11.34 en m/s2

Part b
R = 1490 m
