Physics Work, Energy, Power and Collision Mix MCQ (Single Correct)

The potential energy of a particle of mass 5 kg moving in the xy plane is given as U = – 7x + 24 y Joules, x and y in meters. Initially at t = 0 the particle is at the origin (0, 0) moving with a velocity of v = 6 [2.4 + 0.7 ] m/s, then -

A
The magnitude of velocity of the particle at t = 4 sec is 25 m/s
B
The magnitude of acceleration of the particle is 5 m/s 2
C
The direction of motion of the particle initially at t = 0 is at right angles to the direction of acceleration
D
The path of the particle is circle

The correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.

(a, b, c)

= 7 – 24

=

v (t = 4) = 20 – 15 by using equation of motion

not always as is constant

However initially . = 0.
