A particle moves along a circular path over a horizontal xycoordinate system, at constant speed. At time t1=4.00s , it is at point (5.00 m, 6.00 m) with velocity (3.00m/s)i^ and acceleration in the positive xdirection. At time t2=10.0s , it has velocity (-3.00m/s)i^and acceleration in the positive direction. What are the (a) x and (b) y coordinates of the center of the circular path ift2-t1is less than one period?

Short Answer

  1. x coordinate of the center of the circular path x = 8.82 m
  2. y coordinate of the center of the circular path y = 6.00 m

Step by step solution

Given data

  1. The coordinates of a particle at t1isP(5.00m,6.00m)
  2. The velocity of the particle att1isv1=(3.00m/s)j^
  1. The time instance, t2=10.0s
  2. The velocity of the particle at t2isv2=(-3.00m/s)j^

Understanding the concept of circular motion

Using the equation for acceleration, we can find the radius of the circular path. The particle is moving with uniform circular motion. Hence, the magnitude of velocity and acceleration is constant. We sketch the figure as per the given condition. Theparticle covers three-quarters of the circular path. We can find period T and then use the relation between velocity, acceleration, and radius and find the radius of the circular path. From the figure, the coordinates of the center is C (x + r, y).

Formula:

v=rӬӬ=2ττT

Calculate the x and y coordinates of the center of the circular path if t2-t1 is less than one period

According to the figure, the particle covers three quarters of the circumference of circle from t1tot2.

Hence, t2-t1is equal to the three quarters of period T.

t2-t1=3T4T=4(t2-t1)3=4(10.0s-4.00s)3=8.00st2-t1<T

The particle is moving in a circular path with uniform circular motion; hence themagnitude of velocity and acceleration remains the same. The magnitude of velocity is v=3.00m/s.

The relation between velocity, acceleration and radius is,

v=rӬv=r2ττTr=vT2ττ=3.00m/s×8.00s2ττ=3.82m

When the particle comes fromt1tot2tothe y coordinates of the particle at the center remains same but x is (x+r, y)

Therefore, the x and y coordinates of the particle at the center is C ( 8.82m ,6.00m) .

Figure 4-30gives the path of a squirrel moving about on level ground, from point A (at timet=0), to points B (at t=5.00min), C (at t=10.0min), and finally D (at t=15.0min). Consider the average velocities of the squirrel from point A to each of the other three points. Of them, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) angle of the one with the least magnitude and the (c) magnitude and (d) angle of the one with the greatest magnitude?
