Assignment 1: KINEMATICS
A point moves in a plane, its velocities parallel to the axes of x and y being u-+ey and
v-+ex respectively. Show that it moves in a conic section.
A particle is moving with a constant velocity parallel to the axis of y and a velocity
proportional to y parallel to x. Prove that it will describe a parabola.
A particle moves in the curve y = aalogsec~ in such a way that the tangent to the curve
a
rotates uniformly. Prove that the resultant acceleration of the particle varies as the square
of the radius of curvature.
If the radial and transverse velocities of a particle are always proportional to each other.
Show that the path is an equiangular spiral.
Find the path and radial and transverse acceleration of a moving point, if its radial and
transverse velocities be Ar? and 16? respectively.
The velocities of a particle along and perpendicular to the radius vector are Ar and 0.
Find the path and show that the accelerations along and perpendicular to the radius vector

Prove that if the tangential and normal acceleration of a particle describing a plane curve
be constant throughout the motion, the angle y through which the direction of motion
tums in time ¢ is given by y = Alog(1+ Br).
A point moves in a plane curve so that its tangential and normal accelerations are equal
and the angular velocity of the tangent is constant. Find its path.
A point is describing a circle of radius a in such a way that the tangential acceleration is
X times the normal acceleration. If its speed at a certain point is w, prove that it will
return to the some point after time qt! -e"),
