Question
An object moves in the x-y plane with a constant acceleration of 2i +3j meters per second squared. The object starts at the origin with some initial velocity. After four seconds (4 seconds) the velocity of the object is 2i + 8j meters per second.
- Determine the object’s initial velocity. Leave answer in i-j notation.
- Determine the position of the object at time, t = 4 seconds. Leave answer in i-j notation.
