Vehicle Velocity

Vehicle Velocity#

A car’s position as a function of time is given by \(\vec{r} =\) (1\(t^2 -\) 3\(t)\hat{\imath} + (\) 7\(t^{-1}+\) 2 \(t^3)\hat{\jmath}\) where \(\vec{r}\) is in meters and \(t\) is in seconds.

Part 1#

What is the car’s velocity at \(t=\) 1 \(s\)?

Answer Section#

  • (-1\(\hat{\imath}\) - 1\(\hat{\jmath}\)) \(m/s\)

  • (-1\(\hat{\imath}\) + 6\(\hat{\jmath}\)) \(m/s\)

  • (-2\(\hat{\imath}\) + 9\(\hat{\jmath}\)) \(m/s\)

  • (-2\(\hat{\imath}\) - 1\(\hat{\jmath}\)) \(m/s\)

  • (-1\(\hat{\imath}\) + 9\(\hat{\jmath}\)) \(m/s\)
