Answer:
a)
a = 1/5
b = 1/3
b)
x(1/3) = 2.500
y(1/3) = 2.598
c)
x'(t) = -5π sin(π t)
d)
x'(1/3) = -13.603
Explanation:
Hi!
a)
We can notice that
x(t)/5 = cos(πt)
y(t)/3 = sin(πt)
Therefore:
( x(t) / 5 )^2 + ( y(t) / 3 )^2 = cos^2(πt) + sin^2(πt) = 1
That is:
a = 1/5
b = 1/3
b)
At t=1/3
x(1/3) = 5 cos(π/3)
y(1/3) = 3 sin(π/3)
But
cos(π/3) = 1/2 = 0.5
sin(π/3) = √3 / 2 = 0.866
That is:
x(1/3) = 2.5
y(1/3) = 2.598
c)
The horizontal velocity is:
x'(t) = -5π sin(π t)
d)
at time t =1/3
x'(1/3) = -5π sin(π/3) = -13.603
Initial speed(u)=0m/s
Final speed(v)= 27m/s
Time(t)=7.6s
Use the equation of motion: v = u + at
27 = 0 + a(7.6)
27/7.6 = a
a = 3.55 m/s^2 (3 s.f)
M= Height of image/height of the object
If, M>1, then height of image>height of object.
And therefore, image is larger than the object.
Answer:
B- They both have travelled equal distances in 7 minutes
Hope this helps!
