A particle starts from origin at t=0t = 0 with a velocity 5\overset{^}{i}m{s}^{- 1} and moves in x−yx - y plane under action of a force which produces a constant acceleration of ( 3\overset{^}{i} + 2\overset{^}{j} ) m{s}^{- 2}. If the xx-coordinate of the particle at that instant is 84m84m, then the speed of the particle at this time is αms−1\sqrt{\alpha}m{s}^{- 1}. The value of α\alpha is _______.

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Given, ux=5ms−1,ax=3ms−2,x=84m{u}_{x} = 5m{s}^{- 1}, {a}_{x} = 3m{s}^{- 2}, x = 84m

The formula to calculate the velocity of the particle along x-axis is given by

vx2=ux2+2ax...(1){v}_{x}^{2} = {u}_{x}^{2} + 2ax . . . \left(1\right)

From equation (1), it follows that

vx2=25+2(3)(84)⇒vx=23ms−1{v}_{x}^{2} = 25 + 2 ( 3 ) ( 84 ) ⇒ {v}_{x} = 23m{s}^{- 1}

Also, the velocity of the particle along x-axis can be written as

vx=ux+axt...(2){v}_{x} = {u}_{x} + {a}_{x}t . . . \left(2\right)

From equation (2), it follows that

{t=23−53=6s\begin{cases}t & = & \dfrac{23 - 5}{3} \\ & = & 6s\end{cases}

Similarly, for the y−y - component of the velocity, it follows that

{vy=0+ayt=0+2×(6)=12ms−1\begin{cases}{v}_{y} & = & 0 + {a}_{y}t \\ & = & 0 + 2 \times ( 6 ) \\ & = & 12m{s}^{- 1}\end{cases}

Hence, the magnitude of the velocity is given by

v2=vx2+vy2=232+122=673v=673ms−1{v}^{2} = {v}_{x}^{2} + {v}_{y}^{2} = {23}^{2} + {12}^{2} = 673v = \sqrt{673}m{s}^{- 1}

Therefore, α=673\alpha = 673.
