Question

a parametric position vector is defined as pictured - the final condition makes sure of a positive radius 

plots show space curves for the pos. vector
 alpha = 3, beta = 1, k = 2, h = 4, and w = 1.

cylindrical vector definitions 

x = p cos(phi), y = psin(phi), z = z , p = sqrt(x^2+y^2), phi = arctan(y/x)


a) find when the velocity vector r'(t) is perpendicular to the position vector (pictured) 
b) simplify the answer to a) for the parameter values used to construct the space curve in the
figure. Is the result consistent with the space curve?

r(t) = (a+sin(kt)) êp + hêz with
(t) = wt, a,ẞ, k>0, and a >ẞ.
Transcribed Image Text:r(t) = (a+sin(kt)) êp + hêz with (t) = wt, a,ẞ, k>0, and a >ẞ.
