A Given: Particle P moves within the x-y plane on a path described by y (x) = 2√4x2 + 12 where both x and y are given in feet.
Find: Determine the acceleration of P.
Write your answer as a vector in terms of its x-y components. Use the following parameters in your analysis: x = 2 ft, ?x = -10 ft/s and ¨x = 0
