Velocity Vector and Magnitude from Position
< Prev
Next >

A particle’s position in the plane is given by the vector function $$\vec{p}(t)=(2*t+1)\,\mathbf{i}+(3*t-2)\,\mathbf{j}$$. Find the velocity vector $$\vec{v}(t)$$ and its magnitude at $$t=2$$.

A

$$\vec{v}(2)=\langle 2,3\rangle\quad \text{with magnitude } 5$$

B

$$\vec{v}(2)=\langle 2*t,3*t\rangle\quad \text{with magnitude } \sqrt{(2*t)^2+(3*t)^2}$$

C

$$\vec{v}(2)=\langle 4,5\rangle\quad \text{with magnitude } \sqrt{41}$$

D

$$\vec{v}(2)=\langle 2,3\rangle\quad \text{with magnitude } \sqrt{13}$$
