A particle travels along the x-axis such that its acceleration is given by a(t)=(t0.5+3)cos(3t). If the velocity of the particle is v=−2 when t=1, what is the velocity of the particle when t=1 ? You may use a calculator and round your answer to the nearest thousandth.Answer:
Q. A particle travels along the x-axis such that its acceleration is given by a(t)=(t0.5+3)cos(3t). If the velocity of the particle is v=−2 when t=1, what is the velocity of the particle when t=1 ? You may use a calculator and round your answer to the nearest thousandth.Answer:
Identify Given Information: Identify the given information and what is being asked.We are given the acceleration function a(t)=(t0.5+3)cos(3t) and the initial velocity v=−2 at t=1. We need to find the velocity of the particle at t=1.
Recognize Initial Velocity: Recognize that the velocity at t=1 is already given.The problem states that the velocity v is −2 when t=1. Since we are asked to find the velocity at the same point in time (t=1), we do not need to perform any further calculations.
