A particle moves in x-y plane according to rule x = a t and y = a t. The particle follows

  1. an elliptical path
  2. a circular path
  3. a parabolic path
  4. a straight line path inclined equally to x and y-axes

Answer

(2) a circular path

Solution

x = a t, y = a t

Squaring and adding:

x2 + y2 = a2( 2 t + 2 t)

⇒ x2 + y2 = a2

∴ The path is a circle of radius a centred at the origin.

Answer: (2)
