Polar Coordinates

A particle of unit mass is moving on a plane. Its trajectory, in polar coordinates, is given by r(t) = t^2, θ(t) = t, where t is time. The kinetic energy of the particle at time t...

A Particle of unit mass is moving on a plane. Its trajectory, in polar coordinates, is given by $$r\left( t \right) = {t^2},\theta \left( t \right) = t,$$ where $$t$$ is time. The...

A straight rod length $$L(t),$$ hinged at one end freely extensible at the other end, roates through an angle $$\theta \left( t \right)$$ about the hinge. At time $$t,$$ $$L(t)=1m,...

A leaf is caught in a whirlpool. At a given instant, the leaf is at a distance of $$120$$ $$m$$ from the centre of the whirlpool. The whirlpool can be described by the following ve...
