4. In this question, \(\mathbf { i }\) and \(\mathbf { j }\) are perpendicular horizontal unit vectors and \(O\) is a fixed origin.
A pedestrian moves with constant velocity \(\left[ \left( 2 q ^ { 2 } - 3 \right) \mathbf { i } + ( q + 2 ) \mathbf { j } \right] \mathrm { ms } ^ { - 1 }\).
Given that the velocity of the pedestrian is parallel to the vector \(( \mathbf { i } - \mathbf { j } )\),
- Show that one possible value of \(q\) is \({ } ^ { - } 1\) and find the other possible value of \(q\).
Given that \(q = { } ^ { - } 1\), and that the pedestrian started walking at the point with position vector \(( 6 \mathbf { i } - \mathbf { j } ) \mathrm { m }\),
- find the length of time for which the pedestrian is less than 5 m from \(O\).
