Ok
Turns out I was a little hasty of suggesting to find a closed form for ##x(t)## and ##y(t)##. You can write the equations down, but I think it results in some non-elementary integrals involving ##\sin \left( kt^2 \right)##, and ##\cos \left( kt^2 \right)##...

If possible could you provide me with the whole solution

Sorry, No. I can't. But you can write down Newtons Second Laws for the is object and figure out what I'm talking about. Afterword, if you are still curious then take it to the Mathematicians in here to see what they can do with it.
