Problem

The motion of a point on the circumference of a rolling wheel of radius 5 feet is described by the vector function \[ \vec{r}(t)=5(24 t-\sin (24 t)) \vec{i}+5(1-\cos (24 t)) \vec{j} \] Find the velocity vector of the point. \[ \vec{v}(t)= \] Find the acceleration vector of the point. \[ \vec{a}(t)= \] Find the speed of the point. \[ s(t)= \]

Solution

Step 1 :Given the position vector function of a point on the circumference of a rolling wheel of radius 5 feet as \(\vec{r}(t)=5(24 t-\sin (24 t)) \vec{i}+5(1-\cos (24 t)) \vec{j}\)

Step 2 :The velocity vector of the point is the derivative of the position vector function, which is \(\vec{v}(t) = [120 - 120\cos(24t), 120\sin(24t)]\)

Step 3 :The acceleration vector of the point is the derivative of the velocity vector function, which is \(\vec{a}(t) = [2880\sin(24t), 2880\cos(24t)]\)

Step 4 :The speed of the point is the magnitude of the velocity vector, which is \(s(t) = \sqrt{(120 - 120\cos(24t))^2 + 14400\sin^2(24t)}\)

Step 5 :Final Answer: The velocity vector of the point is \(\boxed{(120 - 120\cos(24t))\vec{i} + 120\sin(24t)\vec{j}}\)

Step 6 :The acceleration vector of the point is \(\boxed{2880\sin(24t)\vec{i} + 2880\cos(24t)\vec{j}}\)

Step 7 :The speed of the point is \(\boxed{\sqrt{(120 - 120\cos(24t))^2 + 14400\sin^2(24t)}}\)
