Let k be a scalar and be a differentiable vector function. Prove that . (This is Theorem 11.11 (a).)
For each of the vector-valued functions in Exercises, find the unit tangent vector and the principal unit normal vector at the specified value of t.
Using the definitions of the normal plane and rectifying plane in Exercises 20 and 21, respectively, find the equations of these planes at the specified points for the vector functions in Exercises 40鈥42. Note: These are the same functions as in Exercises 35, 37, and 39.
If , , and are nonzero constants, the graph of a vector function of the formrole="math" localid="1649577570077" is called a twisted cubic. Prove that a twisted cubic intersects any plane in at most three points.
