Assignment #1_Chapter 1_Rectlinear Motion

1. A particle is moving according to the equation S=1.5 t3-13.5 t2+22.5t,


determine the velocity and acceleration after 6 seconds and total distance
for a time interval of 6 seconds.

2. A particle is moving along straight line with of a=1.5v, it starts with a velocity
of 4 m/s. Determine when it stops

3. A particle moving along straight line with acceleration of a=3s-1/3, determine


the velocity and displacement after 4 seconds.

4. Calculate the velocity of a body that is vertically thrown upwards to a height


of 20 m, and the time taken by the object to reach the highest point.

5. From the top of a multi-storey building, a ball is thrown vertically upwards


with a velocity of 30m/s. In how much time the ball will hit the ground, if the
height of the point from where the ball is thrown is 20 m from the ground?

6. The acceleration of a particle varies with time according to the equation a(t)
= pt2 − qt3. Initially, the velocity and position are zero. (a) What is the velocity
as a function of time? (b) What is the
position as a function of time?

7. Between t = 0 and t = t0, a rocket moves straight upward with an acceleration


given by a(t) = A − Bt1/2, where A and B are constants. (a) If x is in meters and
t is in seconds, what are the units of A and B? (b) If the rocket starts from
rest, how does the velocity vary between t = 0 and t = t0? (c) If its
initial position is zero, what is the rocket’s position as a function of time
during this same time interval?

8. The velocity of a particle moving along the x-axis varies with time according
to v(t) = A + Bt−1, where A = 2 m/s, B = 0.25 m, and 1.0 s ≤ t ≤ 8.0 s. Determine
the acceleration and position of the particle at t = 2.0 s and t = 5.0 s. Assume
that x(t = 1 s) = 0.
9. A particle at rest leaves the origin with its velocity increasing with time
according to v(t) = 3.2t m/s. At 5.0 s, the particle’s velocity starts decreasing
according to [16.0 – 1.5(t – 5.0)] m/s. This decrease continues until t = 11.0
s, after which the particle’s velocity remains constant at 7.0 m/s. (a) What is
the acceleration of the particle as a function of time? (b) What is the position
of the particle at t = 2.0 s, t = 7.0 s, and t = 12.0 s?

10.Two particles A and B are moving in a straight line. The positions of the
particles, with respect to an origin, are given by xA(t) =0.5t2- t+ 3 and
xB(t)=-0.25t2 +t+1.
a) Prove that A and B do not collide.
b) How close do A and B get to one another?
c) During which intervals of time are they moving in opposite directions?

11. The acceleration of a particle is defined by the relation 𝑎 = 0.4(1 − 𝑘𝑣),


where k is a constant. Knowing that at 𝑡 = 0 the particle starts from rest at
𝑥 = 4 m and that when 𝑡 = 15 s, 𝑣 = 4 m/s, determine (a) the constant k,
(b) the position of the particle when 𝑣 = 6 m/s, (c) the maximum velocity
of the particle.
