Description: A particle is moving with a velocity \\vec{v} = K(y\\hat{i} + x\\hat{j}), where K is a constant. The general equation for its path is:

Solution

$$v_x = \frac{dx}{dt} = Ky$$

$$v_y = \frac{dy}{dt} = Kx$$

$$\frac{v_y}{v_x} = \frac{dy/dt}{dx/dt} = \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{Kx}{Ky} = \frac{x}{y}$$

$$y \, dy = x \, dx$$

$$\int y \, dy = \int x \, dx \implies \frac{y^2}{2} = \frac{x^2}{2} + C'$$

$$y^2 = x^2 + \text{constant}$$
