A particle is in uniform circular motion about the origin of an x-ycoordinate system, moving clockwise with a period of 7.00s. At one instant, its position vector (measured from the origin) isr→=(2.00m)i^.(3.00m)j^ . At that instant, what is its velocity in unit-vector notation?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The velocity of a particle in unit vector notation is-1.80m/si^+2.69m/sj^

Step by step solution

01

The given data

a) The time period of the particle, T=7s

b) The position vector of the particle, r→=2.00mi^-3.00mj^

02

Understanding the concept of the uniform circular motion

For the Uniform Circular motion, velocity is given by the circumference of a circular path divided by period. As the position of a particle is in the fourth quadrant and the motion is in a clockwise direction, both velocity components should be negative.

Formula:

The velocity of a particle in uniform circular motion, V=2Ï€°ùT ...(i)

03

Step 3: Calculation of the velocity of the particle

Using the given data in equation (i), the x-component of the velocity of the particle can be given as:

Vx=2π×2.00m7.0s=1.80m/s

Similarly, the y-component is given as:

Vy=-2π×3.00m7.0s=-2.69m/s

Since, the position vector r⇶Äis in the fourth quadrant, the motion is clockwise. SoVxandVymust be negative.

So, the velocity of a particle is given in unit-vector notion as:

V=-1.80m/si^+2.69m/sj^

Hence, the velocity value is-1.80m/si^+2.69m/sj^

You are kidnapped by political-science majors (who are upset because you told them political science is not real science). Although blindfolded, you can tell the speed of their car (by the whine of the engine), the time of travel (by mentally counting off seconds), and the direction of travel (by turns along the rectangular street system). From these clues, you know that you are taken along the following course: 50Km/hfor2.0min, turn 90°to the right,20Km/h for4.0min, turn 90°to the right, 20Km/hfor60s, turn 90°to the left,50Km/hfor60s, turn 90°to the right, 20Km/hfor2.0min, turn90° to the left 50Km/hfor30s. At that point, (a) how far are you from your starting point, and (b) in what direction relative to your initial direction of travel are you?

The plane arrives in2.00hr. What were the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the wind velocity?

The velocity v→of a particle moving in the xy plane is given by v→=(6.0t-4.0t2)iÁåœ-(8.0)jÁåœ, with v→in meters per second and t(>0) in seconds. (a) What is the acceleration when t=3.0 s ? (b) When (if ever) is the acceleration zero? (c) When (if ever) is the velocity zero? (d) When (if ever) does the speed equal 10 m/s ?

A woman can row a boat at 6.40 km/hin still water. (a) If she is crossing a river where the current is 3.20 km/h , in what direction must her boat be headed if she wants to reach a point directly opposite her starting point? (b) If the river is 6.40 km wide, how long will she take to cross the river? (c) Suppose that instead of crossing the river she rows 3.20 km/h downthe river and then back to her starting point. How long will she take? (d) How long will she take to row3.20 km upthe river and then back to her starting point? (e) In what direction should she head the boat if she wants to cross in the shortest possible time, and what is that time?
