The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the velocity components The position of the particle is given by: - \( x = 7 + 3t^3 \) - \( y = 13 + 5t - 9t^2 \) To find the velocity components, we differentiate the position equations with respect to time \( t \). **Velocity in the x-direction (\( v_x \))**: \[ v_x = \frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(7 + 3t^3) = 9t^2 \] **Velocity in the y-direction (\( v_y \))**: \[ v_y = \frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(13 + 5t - 9t^2) = 5 - 18t \] ### Step 2: Find the acceleration component Next, we differentiate the velocity components to find the acceleration components. **Acceleration in the x-direction (\( a_x \))**: \[ a_x = \frac{dv_x}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(9t^2) = 18t \] ### Step 3: Set the x-component of acceleration to 36 m/s² We need to find the time \( t \) when the x-component of acceleration \( a_x = 36 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). Setting the equation: \[ 18t = 36 \] Solving for \( t \): \[ t = \frac{36}{18} = 2 \, \text{s} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the velocity components at \( t = 2 \, \text{s} \) Now we will find the velocity components at \( t = 2 \, \text{s} \). **Calculate \( v_x \)**: \[ v_x = 9t^2 = 9(2^2) = 9 \times 4 = 36 \, \text{m/s} \] **Calculate \( v_y \)**: \[ v_y = 5 - 18t = 5 - 18(2) = 5 - 36 = -31 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 5: Find the magnitude of the velocity The magnitude of the velocity \( v \) can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem: \[ v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2} \] Substituting the values: \[ v = \sqrt{(36)^2 + (-31)^2} = \sqrt{1296 + 961} = \sqrt{2257} \] Calculating the square root: \[ v \approx 47.51 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Final Answer The speed (magnitude of the velocity) when the x-component of the acceleration is \( 36 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) is approximately \( 47.51 \, \text{m/s} \). ---
