Osculating circles: Find the equation of the osculating circle to the given function at the specified value of t.

r(t)=3sin2t,3cos2t,t=3

Short Answer

Expert verified

The equation of the osculating circle is x2+y2=9.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information  

We are given,

r(t)=3sin2t,3cos2t,t=3

02

Step 2. Finding the equation. 

First calculate the graph of vector function r(t), normal vector N(t) and the curvature k at t=3.

role="math" localid="1649836096067" r(t)=3sin2t,3cos2tr3=3sin23,3cos23=332,-32r'(t)=6cos2t,-6sin2tr'(t)=36cos22t+36sin22t=36cos22t+sin22t=6

Calculating unit tangent vector at t,

T(t)=r'(t)r'(t)=6cos2t,-6sin2t6=cos2t,-sin2tT'(t)=-2sin2t,-2cos2tT'(t)=(-2sin2t)2+(-2cos2t)2=4sin22t+cos22t=2

03

Step 3. Finding the equation. 

The unit normal vector is given by,

N(t)=T'(t)T'(t)=-2sin2t-2cos2t2=-sin2t,-cos2tN3=-sin23,-cos23=-32,12

The next step is to determine the curvature k at role="math" t=3.

For this T'3and r'3are to be calculated.

Since T'(t)=2,

so T'3=2

Since r'(t)=6,

so r'3=6

The curvature k of C at a point on the curve is given by

k=T'3r'3k=26k=13

04

Step 4. Finding the equation. 

The radius of the curvature of C is given by =1k.

=113=3

The center of the osculating circle at t=3is given by

r3+1kN3=332,-32+3-32,12=332,-32+3-332,32=33-332,-3+32=0,0

So the osculating circle is,

(x-0)2+(y-0)2=32x2+y2=9
