The coordinates of a particle moving in a plane are given by x(t) = a cos(pt) and y(t) = b sin(pt) where a, b (< a) and p are positive constants of approprite dimensions. Then

the path of the particle is an ellipse

the velocity and acceleration of the particle are normal to each other at t = $${\pi \over {2p}}$$

the acceleration of the particle is always directed towards a focus

the distance traveled by the particle in time interval t = 0 to t = $${\pi \over {2p}}$$ is a

A particle of mass m moves on the x-axis as follows: it starts from rest at t = 0 from the point x = 0, and come to rest at t = 1 at the point x = 1. NO other information is available about its motion at intermediate times ( 0 < t < 1 ). If $$\alpha $$ denotes the instantaneous acceleration of the particle, then:

$$\alpha $$ cannot remain positive for all t in the interval $$0 \le t \le 1$$

$$\left| \alpha \right|$$ cannot exceed 2 at any point in its path.

$$\left| \alpha \right|$$ must be $$ \ge $$ 4 at some point or points in its path.

$$\alpha $$ must be change sign during the motion, but no other assertion can be made with the information given.

A particle is moving eastwards with a velocity of 5 m/s. In 10s the velocity changes to 5 m/s northwards. The average acceleration in this time is

zero

$${1 \over {\sqrt 2 }}m/{s^2}$$ towards north-west

$${1 \over {\sqrt 2 }}m/{s^2}$$ towards north-east

$${1 \over 2}m/{s^2}$$ towards north
