Solution

The given question is related to the physics concept of rotational motion.

Given: Linear acceleration (a) = 20 m/s² Angular acceleration (α) = 5 rad/s²

We know that the linear acceleration (a) and angular acceleration (α) are related by the equation:

a = r * α

where r is the distance from the axis of rotation.

We can rearrange this equation to solve for r:

r = a / α

Substituting the given values:

r = 20 m/s² / 5 rad/s² = 4 m

So, the particle will be at a distance of 4 meters from the axis of rotation.
