A particle has position vector 2i + j initially and is moving with speed 10ms^-1 in the direction 3i - 4j. Find its position vector when t = 3.
Unit vector in direction of 3i - 4j is (3i - 4j)/5. Therefore v = 10 (3i - 4j)/5 = 6i - 8j.
Therefore dx/dt = 6i - 8j => x = 6ti - 8tj + C.... | <urn:uuid:0a2dadef-798f-4189-b4f0-1a411002e95f> | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | http://mathhelpforum.com/math-topics/50690-position-vectors.html | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2013-20/segments/1368711005985/warc/CC-MAIN-20130516133005-00019-ip-10-60-113-184.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.904888 | 262 | 3.609375 | 4 |
