JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 3.2 motion in plane

The position vector of a moving body at any instant of time is given as \(\vec{r}=\left(5 t^2 \hat{i}-5 t \hat{j}\right) \mathrm{m}\). The magnitude and direction of velocity at \(t=2 \mathrm{~s}\) is,

  1. A \(5 \sqrt{15} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), making an angle of \(\tan ^{-1} 4\) with - ve \(Y\) axis
  2. B \(5 \sqrt{15} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), making an angle of \(\tan ^{-1} 4\) with + ve X axis
  3. C \(5 \sqrt{17} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), making an angle of \(\tan ^{-1} 4\) with + ve \(X\) axis
  4. D \(5 \sqrt{17} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), making an angle of \(\tan ^{-1} 4\) with - ve \(Y\) axis

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(5 \sqrt{17} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), making an angle of \(\tan ^{-1} 4\) with - ve \(Y\) axis

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & \overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}}=5 t^2 \hat{\mathrm{i}}-5 \mathrm{t}_{\mathrm{j}} \\ & \overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}}=10 \hat{\mathrm{i}}-5 \hat{\mathrm{j}} \\ & \overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}}=20 \hat{\mathrm{i}}-5 \hat{\mathrm{j}} \quad \text { at } \mathrm{t}=2…
