AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will find the initial position, velocity, and acceleration of the particle given its coordinates as functions of time. The coordinates are given as: - \( x = \alpha \sin(\omega t) \) - \( y = \alpha \cos(\omega t) \) - \( z = bt^2 \) ### Step 1: Find the Initial Position The initial position is found by evaluating the coordinates at \( t = 0 \). ...
