1. A particle moves in the xy-plane with velocity v = r& = dr / dt = xi − (2 / x 2 ) j.
(a) Find the position of the particle, i.e., r(t) at time t, if r(0) = i + j. (b) Find the acceleration of the particle.
2. Suppose r (t ) = (t − sin t )i + (1 − cos t ) j is the position of a particle at time t.
(a) Find the times when the particle has zero velocity. (b) Find the times when the particle has its greatest speed.
3. If b(t ) = a × da / dt , show that db(t ) / dt = a × d 2 a / dt 2 .

5. (a) Use properties 5 and 6 on p. , i.e.,
a ⋅ (b × c) = (a × b) ⋅ c, a × (b × c) = (a ⋅ c)b − (a ⋅ b)c, to show that (a × b) ⋅ (c × d) = (a ⋅ c)(b ⋅ d) − (b ⋅ c)(a ⋅ d). (b) Consider two particles located at positions r1 (t ) and r2 (t ), respectively, with corresponding velocities given respectively by v 1 (t ) and v 2 (t ). Consider the triangle formed by the origin and the position vectors of the two particles. Show that the rate of change of the area A(t) of this triangle is given by the expression dA | r2 | 2 ( v 1 ⋅ r1 )+ | r1 | 2 ( v 2 ⋅ r2 ) − (r2 ⋅ r1 )[( v 1 ⋅ r2 ) + ( v 2 ⋅ r1 )] = . dt 2 | r2 × r1 |
