Answer:

B. He should change the lengths of the vectors that point tangent to the circle so that each is the same length.

Explanation:

A uniform circular motion is a motion in a circle where the tangential speed of the object is constant.

In the motion map:

- The arrows pointing towards the centre of the circle represent the centripetal acceleration, and their length represent the magnitude of the acceleration

- The arrows pointing tangential to the circle represent the tangential speed, and their length represent the magnitude of the speed

In this motion map, we see that the length of the vectors pointing tangent to the circle is not constant: this means that the speed is not constant. In order to have a uniform circular motion, the speed must be constant, therefore the lengths of the vectors that point tangent to the circle must be the same.

I personally don't (I can't speak for others tho) but I say right twix is better for the memes

The position of a particle moving along the x-axis depends on the time according to the equation x = ct2 - bt3, where x is in me

Sav [38]

Answer:

(a): $\rm meter/ second^2.$

(b): $\rm meter/ second^3.$

(c): $\rm 2ct-3bt^2.$

(d): $\rm 2c-6bt.$

(e): $\rm t=\dfrac{2c}{3b}.$

Explanation:

Given, the position of the particle along the x axis is

$\rm x=ct^2-bt^3.$

The units of terms $\rm ct^2$ and $\rm bt^3$ should also be same as that of x, i.e., meters.

The unit of t is seconds.

(a):

Unit of $\rm ct^2=meter$

Therefore, unit of $\rm c= meter/ second^2.$

(b):

Unit of $\rm bt^3=meter$

Therefore, unit of $\rm b= meter/ second^3.$

(c):

The velocity v and the position x of a particle are related as

$\rm v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\=\dfrac{d}{dx}(ct^2-bt^3)\\=2ct-3bt^2.$

(d):

The acceleration a and the velocity v of the particle is related as

$\rm a = \dfrac{dv}{dt}\\=\dfrac{d}{dt}(2ct-3bt^2)\\=2c-6bt.$

(e):

The particle attains maximum x at, let's say, $\rm t_o$ , when the following two conditions are fulfilled:

$\rm \left (\dfrac{dx}{dt}\right )_{t=t_o}=0.$
$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}$

Applying both these conditions,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{dx}{dt}\right )_{t=t_o}=0\\2ct_o-3bt_o^2=0\\t_o(2c-3bt_o)=0\\t_o=0\ \ \ \ \ or\ \ \ \ \ 2c=3bt_o\Rightarrow t_o = \dfrac{2c}{3b}.$
