9 In this question, the vectors \(\mathbf { i }\) and \(\mathbf { j }\) are directed east and north respectively.
The velocity \(\mathbf { v } \mathrm { ms } ^ { - 1 }\) of a particle at time \(t\) s is given by \(\mathbf { v } = k t ^ { 2 } \mathbf { i } + 6 t\), where \(k\) is a positive constant. The magnitude of the acceleration when \(t = 2\) is \(10 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 2 }\).
- Calculate the value of \(k\).
The particle is at the origin when \(t = 0\).
- Determine an expression for the position vector of the particle at time \(t\).
- Determine the time when the particle is directly north-east of the origin.
