A jet plane is flying at a constant altitude. at time t1=0 it has components of velocity vx= 94 m/s , vy= 110 m/s . at time t2= 33.5 s the components are vx= 175 m/s , vy= 45 m/s . part a for this time interval calculate the average acceleration. give your answer as a pair of components separated by a comma. for example, if you think the x component is 3 and the y component is 4, then you should enter 3,4. express your answer using two significant figures.
The motion where it is is acted upon two forces of different directions is a characteristic of a projectile motion. These two vector forces of the resultant force are the vx and vy component forces. The resultant force is denoted by v only, while the components are vx and vy.
Now, the are to determine the x and y components of acceleration also denoted as ax and ay. By definition, acceleration is the change of velocity per change of time:
a = Δv/Δt
If we distinguish the component vectors,
ax = Δvx/Δt and ay = Δvy/Δt
The value for Δt is: Δt = 33.5 - 0 = 33.5 s. So, substituting the values,
