(a) Differentiate the position vector to get the velocity vector:
<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = (3.00 m/s) <em>t</em> <em>i</em> - (4.00 m/s²) <em>t</em>² <em>j</em> + (2.00 m) <em>k</em>
<em>v</em><em>(t)</em> = d<em>r</em>/d<em>t</em> = (3.00 m/s) <em>i</em> - (8.00 m/s²) <em>t</em> <em>j</em>
<em></em>
(b) The velocity at <em>t</em> = 2.00 s is
<em>v</em> (2.00 s) = (3.00 m/s) <em>i</em> - (16.0 m/s) <em>j</em>
<em></em>
(c) Compute the electron's position at <em>t</em> = 2.00 s:
<em>r</em> (2.00 s) = (6.00 m) <em>i</em> - (16.0 m) <em>j</em> + (2.00 m) <em>k</em>
The electron's distance from the origin at <em>t</em> = 2.00 is the magnitude of this vector:
||<em>r</em> (2.00 s)|| = √((6.00 m)² + (-16.0 m)² + (2.00 m)²) = 2 √74 m ≈ 17.2 m
(d) In the <em>x</em>-<em>y</em> plane, the velocity vector at <em>t</em> = 2.00 s makes an angle <em>θ</em> with the positive <em>x</em>-axis such that
tan(<em>θ</em>) = (-16.0 m/s) / (3.00 m/s) ==> <em>θ</em> ≈ -79.4º
or an angle of about 360º + <em>θ</em> ≈ 281º in the counter-clockwise direction.
Answer:
We live in a very adaptable environment. If we cannot adapt to the environment, we will not be able to survive.
Explanation:
There is a direct relationship between between an object's weight and its mass.
Weight is actually the force of gravity on the object's mass and it can be calculated by multiplying the object's mass and the acceleration due to gravity. The higher the mass, the higher the weight and the lower the mass, the lower the object's weight. Thus, the relationship is direct.
