A particle moves in a plane with trajectory given by the polar equation,

Question

r = a(1 + cos �);where a is a positive constant Suppose that the particle moves such that �theta(t) =omega for all t; that is, the angular velocity �theta is constant.Show that the
acceleration has radial component -aomega^2 (2 cos �+1)and transverse component
-2aomega^2sintheta

Answer 1

first find velocity and acceleration then automatically answer will come out
