Question

A robotic vehicle, or rover, is exploring the surface of Mars. The
stationary Mars lander is the origin of coordinates, and the sur-
rounding Martian surface lies in the xy-plane. The rover, which we
x = 2.0 m - 10.25 m > s22t2
represent as a point, has x- and y-coordinates that vary with time:
y = 11.0 m > s2t + 10.025 m > s32t3
(a) Find the rover’s coordinates and distance from the lander at
t = 2.0 s. (b) Find the rover’s displacement and average velocity
vectors for the interval t = 0.0 s to t = 2.0 s. (c) Find a general
S. Express
expression for the rover’s instantaneous velocity vector v
S at t = 2.0 s in component form and in terms of magnitude and
v
direction.

d) Find the instantaneous acceleration at t = 2.0 s.

e) a1 , t=1sec

a0 , t=0sec
