A particle moves in the $xy$ -plane with velocity $u_x = 8t -2$ and $u_y = 2$. If it passes through the point $(14, 4)$ at $t = 2\, s$, the equation of its path is
$x^2 = 2 -y$
$x = 2 -y^2$
$x = y^2 -y + 2$
$x = y^2 + y -2$
The acceleration of a body in a non-uniform circular motion is $5\, ms^{-2}$. Which one of the following is correct?
A car travels $6\, km$ towards north at an angle of $45^o$ to the east and then travels distance of $4\, km$ towards north at an angle $135^o$ to east. How far is the point from the starting point? What angle does the straight line joining its initial and final position makes with the east?
The equation of a projectile is $y=a x-b x^2$. Its horizontal range is ......
A girl riding a bicycle with a speed of $5\,ms^{-1}$ towards north direction, observes rain falling vertically down. If she increases her speed to $10\,ms^{-1}$, rain appears to meet her at $45^o$ to the vertical. What is the speed of the rain ? In what direction does rain fall as observed by a ground based observer ?
If the position vector of a particle is
$\vec r = - \cos \,t\hat i + \sin \,t\hat j - 18\,t\hat k$
then what is the magnitude of its acceleration ?
