Suppose that, at time t = 0, a particle with mass 3 has position vector ⃗r(0) = 4⃗j − ⃗k and velocity ⃗v(0) = −5⃗j − 13⃗k. The particle is then subjected to a constant force of F⃗ = 9⃗ı + 6⃗k.
(a) Find the position of the particle (as a function of
time).
(b) When is the particle moving most slowly? Compare the minimum
speed with the speed
at times t = 1 and t = 4.
Thank you!
My Mistake.
a) a = F/m = 3i + 2 k
x = 0.5 ax t^2 = 1.5 t^2
y = 4 - Vy t = 4 - 5t
z = - 1 - 13t + 0.5*2*t^2 = -1 -13t + t^2
Hence position = 1.5t^2 i + (4 - 5t) j + (-1 -13t + t^2) k
b) speed v = 9t i - 5 j + (-13+2t) k
for slowest speed, we can ignore y speed value as it is not changing with time.
speed v= sqrt(81t^2 + 5^2+4t^2 -52 t +169)
= sqrt(85t^2-52 t+168)
dv/dt = 0, 170 t = 52
t = 52/170 = 0.306 s
Minimum speed will be at t = 0.306 s
minimum speed = sqrt(81*0.306^2 + 5^2+4*0.306^2 -52*0.306 +169)
= 13.64
speed at t = 1, v = sqrt(81*1^2 + 5^2+4*1^2 -52*1 +169)
=15.07
speed at t=4, v = sqrt(81*4^2 + 5^2+4*4^2 -52*4 +169) = 36.69
