The position vector \(r\) describes the path of an object moving in space. Find the velocity, speed, and acceleration of the object. $$ \mathbf{r}(t)=t^{2} \mathbf{i}+t \mathbf{j}+2 t^{3 / 2} \mathbf{k} $$
Determine whether the statement is true or false. If it is false, explain why or give an example that shows it is false. The definite integral of a vector-valued function is a real number.
In Exercises 39 and \(40,\) find the angle \(\theta\) between \(r(t)\) and \(r^{\prime}(t)\) as a function of \(t .\) Use a graphing utility to graph \(\theta(t) .\) Use the graph to find any extrema of the function. Find any values of \(t\) at which the vectors are orthogonal. $$ \mathbf{r}(t)=3 \sin t \mathbf{i}+4 \cos t \mathbf{j} $$
The position vector \(r\) describes the path of an object moving in the \(x y\) -plane. Sketch a graph of the path and sketch the velocity and acceleration vectors at the given point. $$ \mathbf{r}(t)=3 \cos t \mathbf{i}+2 \sin t \mathbf{j},(3,0) $$
The \(z\) -component of the derivative of the vector-valued function \(\mathbf{u}\) is 0 for \(t\) in the domain of the function. What does this information imply about the graph of \(\mathbf{u}\) ?
