The correct Answer is:
To find the distance traveled by the particle in 2 seconds, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the position vector The position vector of the particle is given by: \[ \vec{r}(t) = 3\sin(t) \hat{i} + 3\cos(t) \hat{j} + 4t \hat{k} \] ### Step 2: Differentiate the position vector to find the velocity vector To find the velocity vector \(\vec{v}(t)\), we differentiate the position vector \(\vec{r}(t)\) with respect to time \(t\): \[ \vec{v}(t) = \frac{d\vec{r}}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(3\sin(t) \hat{i} + 3\cos(t) \hat{j} + 4t \hat{k}) \] Differentiating each component: - The derivative of \(3\sin(t)\) is \(3\cos(t)\). - The derivative of \(3\cos(t)\) is \(-3\sin(t)\). - The derivative of \(4t\) is \(4\). Thus, the velocity vector is: \[ \vec{v}(t) = 3\cos(t) \hat{i} - 3\sin(t) \hat{j} + 4 \hat{k} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the magnitude of the velocity vector The magnitude of the velocity vector \(|\vec{v}(t)|\) is given by: \[ |\vec{v}(t)| = \sqrt{(3\cos(t))^2 + (-3\sin(t))^2 + (4)^2} \] Calculating each term: - \((3\cos(t))^2 = 9\cos^2(t)\) - \((-3\sin(t))^2 = 9\sin^2(t)\) - \((4)^2 = 16\) Combining these: \[ |\vec{v}(t)| = \sqrt{9\cos^2(t) + 9\sin^2(t) + 16} \] Using the identity \(\cos^2(t) + \sin^2(t) = 1\): \[ |\vec{v}(t)| = \sqrt{9(1) + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the distance traveled in 2 seconds The distance \(d\) traveled by the particle in time \(t\) is given by: \[ d = |\vec{v}(t)| \cdot t \] Substituting \(t = 2\) seconds: \[ d = 5 \cdot 2 = 10 \text{ meters} \] ### Final Answer The distance traveled by the particle in 2 seconds is: \[ \boxed{10 \text{ meters}} \]

To find the distance traveled by the particle in 2 seconds, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the position vector The position vector of the particle is given by: \[ \vec{r}(t) = 3\sin(t) \hat{i} + 3\cos(t) \hat{j} + 4t \hat{k} \] ...
