Math 112 Calculus
I’m working on a mathematics test / quiz prep and need support to help me study.
A spacecraft moves along a path described by the parametric equations shown below for the first 200
s after launch. Here, x and y are measured in meters, and t is measured in seconds. Find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the spacecraft 20.0s and 200 s after launch.
x=401+t4−1,
y=60t3/2
What would be the first step in finding the velocity of the spacecraft at a given time?
Differentiate the x- and y-position components to get the x- and y-velocity components.
Find the values of x and y for the given value of t.
Differentiate y with respect to x.
Use the fact that distance=rate×time.
Find the magnitude of the velocity of the spacecraft when t=20.0
s.
The magnitude is approximately nothing
m/s.
(Round to the nearest integer as needed.)
Find the direction of the velocity of the spacecraft when t=20.0
s. Enter an angle
θ
such that
0°≤θ<360°.
The direction is approximately nothing°.
(Type an integer or decimal rounded to one decimal place as needed.)
The answer is undefined.
