A particle initially located at the origin has an acceleration of a = 2 i+4 j m/s^2 and an initial velocity of v = 6 i - 2 j m/s find : a- its speed and direction of motion at t=5 s b- how far is it from the origin at t =5 s

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

is there supposed to be a \(t\) in your equations?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I do not know

Parth (parthkohli):

Do you know the three equations of motion?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I solve it (a) I need how can solve (b)

Parth (parthkohli):

do you know its position at t = 5 sec?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how can find it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u know how to find distance travelled

Parth (parthkohli):

\[\vec s = \vec u t + \frac{1}{2} \vec a t^2\]
