ENG105 Engineering Dynamics Tutorial 01

1. The motion of a particle is defined by x = 5t4 + 6t3 -5t2 – 3t + 10, where t is in


seconds and x is in m. Derive expressions for the velocity and acceleration for any
time t. Determine the position, velocity and acceleration of the particle when t =
2sec. (x=112m, v=209m/s, a=302m/s2).

2. The motion of a particle is defined by x = 2t3- 4t2 - 34t -38, where t is in seconds
and x is in m. Derive expressions for the velocity and acceleration for any time t.
Hence determine (a) the time when the velocity is zero, and (b) the velocity and
acceleration and the total distance travelled when x = 0. (t (v=0) = 3.14s, v(x=0) =
110.5m/s, a(x=0) = 59.4m/s2, s(total) = 206.6m).

3. The acceleration of a particle is directly proportional to the square of time (a =


kt2). When t = 0, the particle is at 12m. Knowing that at t = 3s, x = 48m and v =
9m/s, express position, x, and velocity, v, in terms of t.

4. A particle oscillates between the points x = 80mm and x = 120mm with an


acceleration a = k(100-x), where k is constant. The velocity of the particle is
9mm/s when x = 100mm and is zero at x = 80mm and x = 120mm. Determine (a)
the value of the constant k, (b) the velocity when x = 115mm. (k = 0.2025, v =
5.95mm/s).

5. A particle is projected to the right from the origin (x = 0) with an initial velocity of
6m/s. If the acceleration a = -v3/2, where a is in m/s2 and v in m/s, determine (a)
the distance the particle will have travelled when its velocity is 3m/s, (b) the time
when v = 2m/s, (c) the time required for the particle to travel 3m. (x = 1.44m,
t(v=2m/s) = 0.59s, t(x=3m) = 1.29s).
