Homework Statement
What if the acceleration is not constant? A particle starts from the origin with velocity 8 i m/s at t = 0 and moves in the xy plane with a varying acceleration given by vector a = (7√t j) m/s2, where t is in s. Answer the following using t as t as necessary.
Determine the vector velocity of the particle as a function of time.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I could find the x-component of the velocity vector, but integrating 8 with respect to time. However, when my answer is wrong when i integrated 7(t^0.5) in an attempt to find the velocity of the particle as a function of time.
4.67t^(1.5) is my answer.
