A small particle starts from rest from the origin of an xy-coordinate system and travels in the xy-plane. Its acceleration in the x-direction is 2m/s^2, and its acceleration in the y-direction is 1m/s^2. What is the x-coordinate of the particle when the y-coordinate is 12m?
If the distance covered is d, then,
for y part,
time taken for the journey is then, t = 4.90/1 = 4.90sec.
then x distance covered will be,
x coordinate is 24.
