Motion in a Plane (2-D Kinematics)

Position of an ant (S\text{S} in metres) moving in Y-Z\text{Y-Z} plane is given by S=2t2j^+5k^S = 2t^{2}\hat{j} + 5\hat{k} (where tt is in second). The magnitude and direction of velocity of the ant at t=1 st = 1\text{ s} will be:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. v⃗=dS⃗dt=4t j^\vec v = \frac{d\vec S}{dt} = 4t\,\hat j (the 5k^5\hat k term is constant)
  2. At t=1t = 1 s, v⃗=4j^\vec v = 4\hat j m/s
  3. So the answer is (d) 4 m/s in yy-direction.
