Intro to Motion in 2D: Position & Displacement
4. 2D Kinematics / Intro to Motion in 2D: Position & Displacement / Problem 1
A private tech company built one of the most advanced and powerful particle accelerators ever. The accelerator uses electricity to 'push' the charged particles (electrons) along a circular path, making them go faster and faster. The path they follow is given by the equation r = vcos(kt2) î + vsin(kt2) ĵ, where v = 4 m and k = 7 x 104 rad/s2 are constants and t is the time. Determine the circle's radius.
