Lecture Example 1: Curvilinear motion • Consider the function • What is the acceleration along the path of travel at time, t=1sec?
Cross Product • Magnitude • Direction
Derivation of the normal and tangential components of acceleration.
Normal and Tangential Directions • n – direction points to center of arc. t x n = b
Lecture Example 2: Find the equation of the path, y=f(x). Find the normal and tangential component of the acceleration at t=0.25s.
Lecture Example 3: At time, t = π seconds determine the velocity of the particle, and determine the tangential and normal components of the acceleration. Draw and label the acceleration vectors on the graph below. The position of the particle is expressed in meters. Trigonometric functions should be evaluated in radians. Spiral of Archimedes r(t) = (t sin t) i + (t cos t ) j 0 < t < 2 π sec
Lecture Example 4: The jet plane travels along the vertical parabolic path. When at Point A it has reached a speed of 200 m/s which is increasing at a rate of 0.8 m/s2. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the plane when it is at Point A. Note: The positions x and y are given in kilometers.
