4. [In this question the unit vectors i and j are due east and due north respectively.]
A stone slides horizontally across ice.
Initially the stone is at the point A(–24i – 10j) m relative to a fixed point O.
After 4 seconds the stone is at the point B(12i + 5j) m relative to the fixed point O.
The motion of the stone is modelled as that of a particle moving in a straight line at
constant speed.
Using the model,
(a) prove that the stone passes through O,
(2)
(b) calculate the speed of the stone.
