The particles A and B have position vectors nt time ( seconds given by rA = ti +(t 2 – 2i)j and
rn = (/-2)i + (r -6/)jrespectively.
i) How for apart arc the particles initially?
in ‘ Vri ) Deduce ‘T’ that , *Cifvolocily the particles B relative have thetosame A ismass a constant , then they produce the sam e force,
iv) ow that the path of the particles is parabolic
