Answer:

Correct Answer: 25. (b)

Solution:

  1. (b) Given:

$x=5 t-2 t^{2} \quad y=10 t$

$v_x=\frac{d x}{d t}=5-4 t \quad v_y=\frac{d y}{d t}=10$

$a_x=\frac{d v_x}{d t}=-4 \quad a_y=\frac{d v_y}{d t}=0$

$\vec{a}=a_x i+a_y j \quad \vec{a}=-4 i m / s^{2}$

Hence, acceleration of particle at $(t=2 s)=-4 m / s^{2}$
