Consider an object moving along the circular trajectory \(\mathbf{r}(t)=\langle A \cos \omega t, A \sin \omega t\rangle,\) where \(A\) and \(\omega\) are constants. a. Over what time interval \([0, T]\) does the object traverse the circle once? b. Find the velocity and speed of the object. Is the velocity constant in either direction or magnitude? Is the speed constant? c. Find the acceleration of the object. d. How are the position and velocity related? How are the position and acceleration related? e. Sketch the position, velocity, and acceleration vectors at four different points on the trajectory with \(A=\omega=1\)
Prove that the midpoint of the line segment joining \(P\left(x_{1}, y_{1}, z_{1}\right)\) and \(Q\left(x_{2}, y_{2}, z_{2}\right)\) is $$\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}, \frac{z_{1}+z_{2}}{2}\right)$$
An object moves along a path given by \(\mathbf{r}(t)=\langle a \cos t+b \sin t, c \cos t+d \sin t\rangle, \quad\) for \(0 \leq t \leq 2 \pi\) a. What conditions on \(a, b, c,\) and \(d\) guarantee that the path is a circle? b. What conditions on \(a, b, c,\) and \(d\) guarantee that the path is an ellipse?
Torsion formula Show that the formula defining the torsion, \(\tau=-\frac{d \mathbf{B}}{d s} \cdot \mathbf{N},\) is equivalent to \(\tau=-\frac{1}{|\mathbf{v}|} \frac{d \mathbf{B}}{d t} \cdot \mathbf{N} .\) The second formula is generally easier to use.
Find the points (if they exist) at which the following planes and curves intersect. $$z=16 ; \mathbf{r}(t)=\langle t, 2 t, 4+3 t\rangle, \text { for }-\infty < t < \infty$$
