Find the point (if it exists) at which the following planes and lines intersect. $$z=-8 ; \mathbf{r}(t)=\langle 3 t-2, t-6,-2 t+4\rangle$$
A pair of lines in \(\mathbb{R}^{3}\) are said to be skew if they are neither parallel nor intersecting. Determine whether the following pairs of lines are parallel, intersecting, or skew. If the lines intersect. determine the point(s) of intersection. $$\begin{array}{l} \mathbf{r}(t)=\langle 4+5 t,-2 t, 1+3 t\rangle ;\\\ \mathbf{R}(s)=\langle 10 s, 6+4 s, 4+6 s\rangle \end{array}$$
Maximum curvature Consider the "superparabolas" \(f_{n}(x)=x^{2 n},\) where \(n\) is a positive integer. a. Find the curvature function of \(f_{n},\) for \(n=1,2,\) and 3 b. Plot \(f_{n}\) and their curvature functions, for \(n=1,2,\) and 3 and check for consistency. c. At what points does the maximum curvature occur, for \(n=1,2,3 ?\) d. Let the maximum curvature for \(f_{n}\) occur at \(x=\pm z_{n} .\) Using either analytical methods or a calculator determine \(\lim _{n \rightarrow \infty} z_{n}\) Interpret your result.
\(\mathbb{R}^{2}\) Consider the vectors \(\mathbf{I}=\langle 1 / \sqrt{2}, 1 / \sqrt{2}\rangle\) and \(\mathbf{J}=\langle-1 / \sqrt{2}, 1 / \sqrt{2}\rangle\). Show that \(\mathbf{I}\) and \(\mathbf{J}\) are orthogonal unit vectors.
Parabolic trajectory Consider the parabolic trajectory $$ x=\left(V_{0} \cos \alpha\right) t, y=\left(V_{0} \sin \alpha\right) t-\frac{1}{2} g t^{2} $$ where \(V_{0}\) is the initial speed, \(\alpha\) is the angle of launch, and \(g\) is the acceleration due to gravity. Consider all times \([0, T]\) for which \(y \geq 0\) a. Find and graph the speed, for \(0 \leq t \leq T.\) b. Find and graph the curvature, for \(0 \leq t \leq T.\) c. At what times (if any) do the speed and curvature have maximum and minimum values?
