The potential energy of a particle of mass 5 kg moving in thex-yplane is given byU=-7x+24y J, wherexandyare given in metre. If the particle starts from rest, from the origin, then the speed of the particle att=2 sis

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

F = - ∂ U ∂ x i ^ - ∂ U ∂ y j ^ = 7 i ^ - 24 j ^

∴ a x = F x m⁡ = 7 5 = 1.4 m/s 2

a y = F y m⁡ = - 24 5

                 =4.8  m/s 2 along negative y−axis

​ ∴ v⁡ x = a x t⁡ = 1.4 × 2

= 2.8 m/s along negative y−axis

and v⁡ y = 4.8 × 2 = 9.6 m/s

∴ v⁡ = v⁡ x 2 + v⁡ y 2 = 10 m/s
