The position co-ordinates of a particle moving in a 3-D coordinate system is given by
x = a cos ω t
y = a sin ω t and
z = a ω t

The speed of the particle is :

A. 2 a ω

B. a ω

C. 3 a ω

D. 2a ω

rrect Option is (A)

Given that,

x = a cos ω t

y = a sin ω t

z = a ω t

Velocity in x-direction,

Vx = d x d t = a ω sin ω t

Velocity in y-direction,

Vy = d y d t = a ω cos ω t

Velocity in z-direction,

Vz = d z d t = a ω

Net velocity,

V = Vx i ^ + Vy j ^ + Vz k ^

Speed = | V | = V x 2 + V y 2 + V z 2

= a 2 ω 2 sin 2 ω t + a 2 ω 2 cos 2 ω t + a 2 ω 2

= a 2 ω 2 ( sin 2 ω t + cos 2 ω t ) + a 2 ω 2

= 2 a 2 ω 2

= 2 a ω

A particle is moving with a velocity

v = K ( y i ^ + x j ^ ) , where K is a constant.

The general equation for its path is :

A. y = x2 + constant

B. y2 = x + constant

C. y2 = x2 + constant

D. xy = constant

rrect Option is (C)

Given,

v = K ( y i ^ + x j ^ )

   Velocity in x direction,

v x = d x d t = K y    . . . . . (1)

Velocity in y direction,

vy = d y d t = Kx . . . . . . . (2)

    d y d t d x d t = K x K y

    d y d x = x y

   ydy = xdx

Integrating both sides we get,

y d x = x d x

    y 2 2 = x 2 2 + c

    y 2 = x 2 + 2 c

   General equation,

y2 = x2 + constant.

   

13. (AIEEE 2010 )

A particle is moving with velocity v = k ( y i ^ + x j ^ ) , where K is a constant. The general equation for its path is

A. y = x2 + constant

B. y2 = x + constant

C. xy = constant

D. y2 = x2 + constant

rrect Option is (D)

v = k ( y i ^ + x j ^ ) ........(1)

Also v = v x i ^ + v y j ^

v = d x d t i ^ + d y d t j ^ ........(2)

Equating (1) and (2), we get

d x d t = k y .......(3)

and d y d t = k x ......(4)

Dividing (3) and (4), we get

d y d x = x y

y d y = x d x

Integrating both sides of above equation, we get

y d y = x d x

y 2 = x 2 + constant

   

14. (AIEEE 2009 )

A particle has an initial velocity 3 i ^ + 4 j ^ and an acceleration of 0.4 i ^ + 0.3 j ^ . Its speed after 10 s is:

A. 7 2 units

B. 7 units

C. 8.5 units

D. 10 units

rrect Option is (A)

Given u = 3 i ^ + 4 j ^ , a = 0.4 i ^ + 0.3 j ^ , t = 10 s

v = u + a t

= 3 i ^ + 4 j ^ + ( 0.4 i ^ + 0.3 j ^ ) × 10

= 7 i ^ + 7 j ^

We know speed is equal to magnitude of velocity.

| v | = 7 2 + 7 2 = 7 2 units

   

15. (AIEEE 2005 )

A particle is moving eastwards with a velocity of 5 m/s. In 10 seconds the velocity changes to 5 m/s northwards. The average acceleration in this time is

A. 1 2 m s 2 towards north

B. 1 2 m s 2 towards north-east

C. 1 2 m s 2 towards north-west

D. zero

rrect Option is (C)

AIEEE 2005 Physics - Motion Question 152 English Explanation

Average acceleration

= c h a n g e i n v e l o c i o t y t i m e int e r v a l

= Δ v t

v 1 = + 5 i ^ , towards east direction.

v 2 = + 5 j ^ , towards north direction

Δ v = v 2 v 1 = 5 i ^ 5 j ^

a = 5 j ^ 5 i ^ 10 = j ^ i ^ 2

a = 1 2 + ( 1 ) 2 2 = 2 2 = 1 2 m s 2

tan θ = v 2 v 1 = 5 5 = 1

θ = 45

Therefore the direction is North-west.
