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.
Let be a differentiable vector function on some interval such that the derivative of the unit tangent vector , where . Prove that the binormal vector
(a) is a unit vector;
(b)is orthogonal to both and .
Also, prove that , and form a right-handed coordinate system.
Let C be the graph of a vector-valued function r. The plane determined by the vectors T(t0) and B(t0) and containing the point r(t0) is called the rectifying plane for C at r(t0). Find the equation of the rectifying plane to the helix determined by when t = π.
Prove that if a particle moves along a curve at a constant speed, then the velocity and acceleration vectors are orthogonal.
