A soccer ball is kicked in such a manner that the x and y components of its position at any time are given by
x = (19.6 m/s)t
and
y = (14.5 m/s)t − (4.90 m/s2)t2,
where x and y will be in meters when t is in seconds.
(a) Determine expressions for the x and y components of its velocity at any time. (Use the following as necessary: t.)
vx = m/s |
vy = m/s |
(b) Determine expressions for the x and y
components of its acceleration at any time. (Use the following as
necessary: t.)
ax = m/s2 |
ay = m/s2 |
(c) Determine expressions for the position, velocity, and
acceleration vectors of the ball at the time
t = 1.73 s.
(Express your answer in vector form.)
r(t = 1.73 s) |
= | m |
v(t = 1.73 s) |
= | m/s |
a(t = 1.73 s) |
= | m/s2 |
Differentiate the position to find velocity and differentiate
the velocity to find the acceleration as shown below
