The position vector of a particle changes with time according to the relation $\vec r\left( t \right) = 15{t^2}\hat i + \left( {4 - 20{t^2}} \right)\hat j$. What is the magnitude of the acceleration at $t = 1$ ?

A particle is moving in a circular path. The acceleration and momentum of the particle at a certain moment are $\vec a = (4\hat i + 3\hat j)\ m/s^2$ and $\vec p = (8\hat i - 6\hat j)\ kg-m/s$ . The motion of the particle is

Let $l$ be the moment of inertia of an uniform square plate about an axis $AB$ that passes through its centre and is parallel to two of its sides. $CD$ is a line in the plane of the plate that passes through the centre of the plate and makes an angle $\theta $ with $AB$. The moment of inertia of the plate about the axis $CD$ is then equal to
