In an attempt to escape a desert island, a castaway builds a raft and sets out to sea. The wind shifts a great deal during the day and he is blown along the following directions: 2.50 km and 45.0 north of west, then 4.70 km and 60.0 south of east, then 1.30 km and 25.0 south of west, then 5.10 km straight east, then 1.70 km and 5.00 east of north, then 7.20 km and 55.0 south of west, and finally 2.80 km and 10.0 north of east. Use a graphical method to find the castaway’s final position relative to the island.
A particle is moving in a circle of radius R. At t = 0, it is located on the x-axis. The angle the particle makes with the positive x -axis is given by 0 = At² + Bt³ What is the magnitude of the tangential acceleration, atan of the particle at a time t > 0? Express your answer in terms of R, t, A, and B as needed. What is the magnitude of the radial acceleration, larad of the particle at a time t > 0? Express your answer in terms of R, t, A, and B as needed.
