The position of a squirrel running in a park is given by r⃗ =[(0.280m/s)t+(0.0360m/s2)t2]i^+ (0.0190m/s3)t3j^.

At 5.01 s , how far is the squirrel from its initial position?

At 5.01 s , what is the magnitude of the squirrel's velocity?

At 5.01 s , what is the direction (in degrees counterclockwise from +x-axis) of the squirrel's velocity?

Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

The position of a squirrel running in a park is given by r⃗   = [(0.280m/s)t+(0.0360m/s2)t2]i+ [ (0.0190m/s3)t3 ] j

a) At 5.01 s , how far is the squirrel from its initial position?

b) At 5.01 s , what is the magnitude of the squirrel's velocity?

c) At 5.01 s , what is the direction (in degrees counterclockwise from +x-axis) of the squirrel's velocity?

Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

 

 

The squirrel is 3.32 m from its initial position(0,0)

 

 

The magnitude of the squirrel's velocity is 1.57 m/s

 

 

The direction (in degrees counterclockwise from +x-axis) of the squirrel's velocity is 65.9 degrees
