The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the time after which the total acceleration of the particle makes an angle of \(45^\circ\) with the radial acceleration. Here are the steps to arrive at the solution: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between tangential and radial acceleration We know that the total acceleration \(A\) of a particle in circular motion can be resolved into two components: tangential acceleration \(a_t\) and radial (centripetal) acceleration \(a_r\). The angle \(\theta\) between the total acceleration and the radial acceleration is given by: \[ \tan(\theta) = \frac{a_t}{a_r} \] ### Step 2: Set up the equation for the angle Given that the angle \(\theta = 45^\circ\), we have: \[ \tan(45^\circ) = 1 \implies a_t = a_r \] ### Step 3: Calculate the radial acceleration The radial acceleration \(a_r\) is given by the formula: \[ a_r = \frac{v^2}{r} \] where \(v\) is the velocity of the particle and \(r\) is the radius of the circular path. We know from the problem that \(r = 4 \, \text{m}\). ### Step 4: Relate tangential acceleration to velocity We are given that the tangential acceleration \(a_t = 9 \, \text{m/s}^2\). Setting \(a_t\) equal to \(a_r\) gives us: \[ 9 = \frac{v^2}{4} \] ### Step 5: Solve for velocity \(v\) From the equation above, we can solve for \(v\): \[ v^2 = 9 \times 4 = 36 \implies v = \sqrt{36} = 6 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 6: Relate tangential acceleration to time The tangential acceleration is also defined as the rate of change of velocity: \[ a_t = \frac{dv}{dt} \] Substituting the known value of \(a_t\): \[ 9 = \frac{dv}{dt} \] ### Step 7: Integrate to find time \(t\) To find the time \(t\) taken to reach the velocity of \(6 \, \text{m/s}\): \[ \int_0^6 dv = \int_0^t 9 \, dt \] This gives us: \[ 6 - 0 = 9t - 0 \implies 6 = 9t \] ### Step 8: Solve for \(t\) Now, solving for \(t\): \[ t = \frac{6}{9} = \frac{2}{3} \, \text{s} \] ### Conclusion The time after which the total acceleration of the particle makes an angle of \(45^\circ\) with the radial acceleration is: \[ \boxed{\frac{2}{3} \, \text{s}} \]
