Hi, I have this math problem where I need to find the scalar component of acceleration at a given time under certain conditions. Usually these problems aren't bad for me, but this one has left me scratching my head.
Its giving me ||a|| = 4 and (aT)(T) = 5i +5j -k
I have the formula aN = (||a||2-aT2)1/2
that I think I can use, and I also have a=aTT + aNN that I also think I can use, but whichever one I try I have failed.
I'm liking the first equation more, but I don't know how to get aT from aTT
Any hints to push me in the right direction?
