A particle moves along the x-axis so that at any time t, t ≥ 0, its acceleration is a(t) = -4sin(2t). If the velocity of the particle at t = 0 is v(0) = 7 and its position at t = 0 is x(0) = 0, then its position at time t is x(t) = ?

A. sin(2t) + 5t
B. sin(2t) + 7t
C. sin(2t) + 9t
D. 16sin(2t) + 7t

Respuesta :

The velocity of the particle is given by

[tex]v(t)=v(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^ta(u)\,\mathrm du[/tex]

Since [tex]a(t)=-4\sin2t[/tex] and [tex]v(0)=7[/tex], we get

[tex]\displaystyle\int_0^ta(u)\,\mathrm du=\int_0^t-4\sin2u\,\mathrm du=2\cos2u\bigg|_0^t=2\cos2t-2[/tex]

[tex]\implies v(t)=2\cos2t+5[/tex]

Similarly, the position function is obtained via

[tex]x(t)=x(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^tv(u)\,\mathrm du[/tex]

We know [tex]v(t)[/tex] and we're told that [tex]x(0)=0[/tex], so

[tex]\displaystyle\int_0^tv(u)\,\mathrm du=\int_0^t(2\cos2u+5)\,\mathrm du=\sin2u+5u\bigg|_0^t=\sin2t+5t[/tex]

[tex]\implies x(t)=\sin2t+5t[/tex]

making the answer A.
