A small aerial vehicle moving in the +x direction reduces its altitude at a constant rate of .5 m/s as it travels along a path described for a short distance by the equation y=100/x^(.2). Where x and y are in m. When x=50m, find; a) the vehicles speed b) how fast the vehicle's speed is changing in time, and c) the vehicles acceleration perpendicular to its flight path.

A beam of protons is moving in the +x direction with a speed of 13 km/s through a region in which the electric field is perpendicular to the magnetic field. The beam of protons is not deflected in this region. The magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.8 T and points in the +y direction. Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field is 11.570 V/m (= (13 x 10³ m/s) (0.8T)) and the direction is along the negative z-axis. What...

An object moves with constant speed in the x-direction, but in the y-direction it is subject to an acceleration that increases linearly with time: a(t)=bt, where b is a constant. Assume there is no gravity. Derive an equation analogous to y=xtanθ−(g/2V^2cos^2θ0)x^2 giving the object's trajectory in this situation. Note that θ0θ0 is the angle measured from the horizontal, at which the projectile is launched, and v0v0 is its initial speed. Assume the object starts moving from the origin. Express your...
