A Particle Moves with Position Vector r(t)=lnti+t1j+etk\vec { r } ( t ) = \ln t \vec { i } + t ^ { - 1 } \vec { j } + e ^ { - t } \vec { k }

Question 25

Multiple Choice

A particle moves with position vector r(t) =lnti+t1j+etk\vec { r } ( t ) = \ln t \vec { i } + t ^ { - 1 } \vec { j } + e ^ { - t } \vec { k } . Describe the movement of the particle as t \rightarrow \infty .


A) The particle will approach the positive x-axis asymptotically as t \rightarrow \infty .Also, since each component of v(t) \vec { v } ( t ) approaches 0 as t \rightarrow \infty , we expect the particle to approach the positive y-axis with slower and slower speed.
B) The particle will approach the positive y-axis asymptotically as t \rightarrow\infty .Also, since each component of v(t) \vec { v } ( t ) approaches 0 as t \rightarrow \infty , we expect the particle to approach the positive x-axis with slower and slower speed.
C) The particle will approach the positive x-axis asymptotically as t \rightarrow \infty .Also, since each component of v(t) \vec { v } ( t ) approaches 0 as t \rightarrow \infty , we expect the particle to approach the positive x-axis with increasing speed.
D) The particle will approach the positive x-axis asymptotically as t \rightarrow\infty .Also, since each component of v(t) \vec { v } ( t ) approaches 0 as t \rightarrow \infty , we expect the particle to approach the positive x-axis with slower and slower speed.
E) The particle will approach the positive x-axis asymptotically as t \rightarrow \infty .Also, since each component of v(t) \vec { v } ( t ) approaches 0 as t \rightarrow \infty , we expect the particle to approach the positive z-axis with slower and slower speed.
