1 1 1 𝑚𝑚
Q.1 𝑥 = 20 + 4 𝑡 2 , 𝑥̇ = 2 𝑡, 𝑥̈ = 2 𝑠2

1 1 𝑚𝑚
𝑦 = 15 − 𝑡 3 , 𝑦̇ = − 𝑡 2 , 𝑦̈ = −𝑡 2
6 2 𝑠

For 𝑡 = 2 𝑠

𝑚𝑚
𝑥̇ = 1
𝑠

𝑚𝑚
𝑦̇ = −2
𝑠

1 𝑚𝑚
𝑥̈ =
2 𝑠2

𝑚𝑚
𝑦̈ = −2
𝑠2

𝑚𝑚
𝑣 = √𝑥̇ 2 + 𝑦̇ 2 = √12 + (−2)2 = 2.24
𝑠

1 2 𝑚𝑚
𝑎 = √𝑥̈ 2 + 𝑦̈ 2 = √( ) + (−2)2 = 2.06 2
2 𝑠

Q.2 𝑣⃗ = 𝛼(𝑦𝑖⃗ + 2𝑥𝑗⃗)

𝑑𝑥
𝑣𝑥 = 𝛼𝑦 =
𝑑𝑡

𝑑𝑦
𝑣𝑦 = 2𝛼𝑥 =
𝑑𝑡

𝑑𝑣⃗ 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑥
𝑎⃗ = = 𝛼 ( 𝑖⃗ + 2 𝑗⃗)
𝑑𝑡 𝑑𝑡 𝑑𝑡

= 𝛼(2𝛼𝑥𝑖⃗ + 2𝛼𝑦𝑗⃗)

= 2𝛼 2 (𝑥𝑖⃗ + 𝑦𝑗⃗)

𝐹⃗ = 𝑚𝑎⃗ = 2𝑚𝛼 2 (𝑥𝑖⃗ + 𝑦⃗)
