Q. A particle starts from the origin $x_{0,x} = 0$ m, $x_{0,y} = 0$ m at 10.0 m/s $v_{0,y} = 10.0$ m/s along y $v_{0,x} = 0$ m/s, and accelerates at 8.0 m/s² $a_{x} = 8.0$ m/s² along x and 2.0 m/s² $a_{y} = 2.0$ m/s² along y. How fast is it moving when its x-coordinate is 16 m $x_{1,x} = 16$ m, in m/s?

The solution

Solved with MotionInAPlane

Given

$v_{0,y} = 10.0$ m/s
$a_{x} = 8.0$ m/s²
$a_{y} = 2.0$ m/s²
$x_{1,x} = 16$ m
$x_{0,x} = 0$ m from “the origin”
$x_{0,y} = 0$ m from “the origin”
$v_{0,x} = 0$ m/s from “along y”

Find $v_{1}$ .

Working

velocity after a distance(flying, x) ${v_{1,x}}^{2} = {v_{0,x}}^{2} + 2 \cdot a_{x} \cdot (x_{1,x} - x_{0,x})$
${v_{1,x}}^{2} = 0^{2} + 2 \cdot 8 \cdot (16 - 0)$
$v_{1,x} = 16$ m/s
velocity after a time(flying, x) $v_{1,x} = v_{0,x} + a_{x} \cdot Δ t$
$16 = 0 + 8 \cdot Δ t$
$Δ t = 2$ s
velocity after a time(flying, y) $v_{1,y} = v_{0,y} + a_{y} \cdot Δ t$
$v_{1,y} = 10 + 2 \cdot 2$
$v_{1,y} = 14$ m/s
magnitude from components(velocity of particle at end of flying from ground) $v_{1} = \sqrt{{v_{1,x}}^{2} + {v_{1,y}}^{2}}$
$v_{1} = \sqrt{16^{2} + 14^{2}}$
$v_{1} = 21.3 m/s$
$v_{1} \approx 21.3$ m/sto 3 significant figures

Conclusion

Each component grows at its own rate; the speed combines them, whatever direction the particle is heading.
