Question Number 96761 by Rio Michael last updated on 04/Jun/20

A particle P   moving at constant angular velocity  describes a part y = f(θ). At time t = 0, the particle  is at the point with coordinate (a,(π/2)) and moving with a   transverse acceleration of −2aω^2  sinθ. find the polar equation  of the curve described by this particle.Show that the  radial component of the  acceleration  of P is −aω^2 (1 + cos θ).
