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

r(t)=sint,cost,t=0

Short Answer

Expert verified

The equation of the osculating circle is x2+y2=2.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information  

We are given,

r(t)=sint,cost,t=0

02

Step 2. Finding the equation.

Calculate the graph of vector function r(0), normal vector N(0) and curvature k should be calculated,

r(t)=sint,costr(0)=sin0,cos0=0,r'(t)=cost,-sintr'(t)=(cost)2+(-sint)2=22=

The unit tangent is given by.

T(t)=r'(t)r'(t)T(t)=cost,-sint=cost,-sintT'(t)=-sint,-costT'(t)=(-sint)2+(-cost)2=2sin2t+cos2t=N(t)=T'(t)T'(t)=-sint,-cost=-sint,-costN(0)=-sin0,-cos0=0,-1

Step 3. Finding the equation.

Thus the principal unit normal vector is,

N(0)=0,-1

The next step is to determine the curvature k at t=0.

For this T'(0)and r'(0)are to be calculated.

since T'(t)=

so T'(0)=

since r'(t)=

so r'(0)=

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

k=T'(0)r'(0)k==1

04

Step 4. Finding the equation.

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

=11=

The center of the osculating circle is given by

r(0)+1kN(0)=0,+0,-1=0,-=0,0

So the osculating circle is,

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