Homework Statement
At t1 = 3.00 s, the acceleration of a particle moving at constant speed in counterclockwise circular motion is
a1=(6m/s2)i+(5m/s2)j
At t2 = 4.00 s (less than one period later), the acceleration is
a2=(5m/s2)i-(6m/s2)j
The period is more than 1.00 s. What is the radius of the circle?
Homework Equations
T= (2∏r)/v
a=v2/r
The Attempt at a Solution
I drew out the vectors, but that's all I could do with the problem. Maybe I'm supposed to integrate to find velocity or something? I just really don't understand where to start. If I knew that, I could probably finish it up. But there's so much information given in the book for circular motion, I don't know what to do with it.
