7. The corresponding parametric equations for this curve are  = sin ,  = .

We can make a table of values, or we can eliminate the parameter:  =  ⇒

 = sin , with  ∈ R. By comparing different values of , we find the direction in


which  increases as indicated in the graph.

8. The corresponding parametric equations for this curve are  = 2 − 1,  = . We

can make a table of values, or we can eliminate the parameter:

= ⇒  = 2 − 1, with  ∈ R. Thus the curve is a parabola with vertex

(−1 0) that opens to the right. By comparing different values of , we find the

direction in which  increases as indicated in the graph.

9. The corresponding parametric equations are  = ,  = 2 − ,  = 2, which are

parametric equations of a line through the point (0 2 0) and with direction vector

h1 −1 2i.

10. The corresponding parametric equations are  = sin ,  = ,  = cos .

Note that 2 +  2 = sin2  + cos2  = 1, so the curve lies on the circular

cylinder 2 +  2 = 1. A point (  ) on the curve lies directly to the left or

right of the point ( 0 ) which moves clockwise (when viewed from the left)

along the circle 2 +  2 = 1 in the -plane as  increases. Since  = , the


curve is a helix that spirals toward the right around the cylinder.

11. The corresponding parametric equations are  = 3,  = ,  = 2 − 2 .

Eliminating the parameter in  and  gives  = 2 −  2 . Because  = 3, the

curve is a parabola in the vertical plane  = 3 with vertex (3 0 2).

12. The corresponding parametric equations are  = 2 cos ,  = 2 sin ,

 = 1. Eliminating the parameter in  and  gives

2 +  2 = 4 cos2  + 4 sin2  = 4(cos2  + sin2 ) = 4. Since  = 1, the

curve is a circle of radius 2 centered at (0 0 1) in the horizontal plane


 = 1.

13. The parametric equations are  = 2 ,  = 4 ,  = 6 . These are positive

for  6= 0 and 0 when  = 0. So the curve lies entirely in the first octant.

The projection of the graph onto the -plane is  = 2 ,   0, a half parabola.

The projection onto the -plane is  = 3 ,   0, a half cubic, and the projection

onto the -plane is  3 =  2 .

14. If  = cos ,  = − cos ,  = sin , then 2 +  2 = 1 and  2 +  2 = 1,


so the curve is contained in the intersection of circular cylinders along the
- and -axes. Furthermore,  = −, so the curve is an ellipse in the
plane  = −, centered at the origin.

15. The projection of the curve onto the -plane is given by r() = h sin  0i [we use 0 for the -component] whose graph
is the curve  = sin ,  = 0. Similarly, the projection onto the -plane is r() = h 0 2 cos i, whose graph is the cosine
wave  = 2 cos ,  = 0, and the projection onto the -plane is r() = h0 sin  2 cos i whose graph is the ellipse
 2 + 14  2 = 1,  = 0.

-plane -plane -plane

From the projection onto the -plane we see that the curve lies on an elliptical
cylinder with axis the -axis. The other two projections show that the curve
oscillates both vertically and horizontally as we move in the -direction,
suggesting that the curve is an elliptical helix that spirals along the cylinder.

16. The projection of the curve onto the -plane is given by r() = h  0i whose graph is the line  = ,  = 0.

The projection onto the -plane is r() =  0 2 whose graph is the parabola  = 2 ,  = 0.

From the projection onto the -plane we see that the curve lies on the vertical
plane  = . The other two projections show that the curve is a parabola contained
in this plane.

17. Taking r0 = h2 0 0i and r1 = h6 2 −2i, we have from Equation 12.5.4

r() = (1 − ) r0 +  r1 = (1 − ) h2 0 0i +  h6 2 −2i, 0 ≤  ≤ 1 or r() = h2 + 4 2 −2i, 0 ≤  ≤ 1.


Parametric equations are  = 2 + 4,  = 2,  = −2, 0 ≤  ≤ 1.

18. Taking r0 = h−1 2 −2i and r1 = h−3 5 1i, we have from Equation 12.5.4

r() = (1 − ) r0 +  r1 = (1 − ) h−1 2 −2i +  h−3 5 1i, 0 ≤  ≤ 1 or r() = h−1 − 2 2 + 3 −2 + 3i, 0 ≤  ≤ 1.

Parametric equations are  = 12 ,  = −1 + 43 ,  = 1 − 34 , 0 ≤  ≤ 1.

20. Taking r0 = h  i and r1 = h  i, we have

r() = (1 − ) r0 +  r1 = (1 − ) h  i +  h  i, 0 ≤  ≤ 1 or r() = h + ( − )  + ( − )  + ( − )i,


0 ≤  ≤ 1. Parametric equations are  =  + ( − ),  =  + ( − ),  =  + ( − ), 0 ≤  ≤ 1.

21.  =  cos ,  = ,  =  sin ,  ≥ 0. At any point (  ) on the curve, 2 +  2 = 2 cos2  + 2 sin2  = 2 =  2 so the

curve lies on the circular cone 2 +  2 =  2 with axis the -axis. Also notice that  ≥ 0; the graph is II.

22.  = cos ,  = sin ,  = 1(1 + 2 ). At any point on the curve we have 2 +  2 = cos2  + sin2  = 1, so the curve lies

on the circular cylinder 2 +  2 = 1 with axis the -axis. Notice that 0   ≤ 1 and  = 1 only for  = 0. A point (  )
on the curve lies directly above the point (  0), which moves counterclockwise around the unit circle in the -plane as 
increases, and  → 0 as  → ±∞. The graph must be VI.

23.  = ,  = 1(1 + 2 ),  = 2 . At any point on the curve we have  = 2 , so the curve lies on a parabolic cylinder parallel
to the -axis. Notice that 0   ≤ 1 and  ≥ 0. Also the curve passes through (0 1 0) when  = 0 and  → 0,  → ∞ as
 → ±∞, so the graph must be V.

24.  = cos ,  = sin ,  = cos 2. 2 +  2 = cos2  + sin2  = 1, so the curve lies on a circular cylinder with axis the
-axis. A point (  ) on the curve lies directly above or below (  0), which moves around the unit circle in the -plane
with period 2. At the same time, the -value of the point (  ) oscillates with a period of . So the curve repeats itself and
the graph is I.

25.  = cos 8,  = sin 8,  = 08 ,  ≥ 0. 2 +  2 = cos2 8 + sin2 8 = 1, so the curve lies on a circular cylinder with
axis the -axis. A point (  ) on the curve lies directly above the point (  0), which moves counterclockwise around the
unit circle in the -plane as  increases. The curve starts at (1 0 1), when  = 0, and  → ∞ (at an increasing rate) as
 → ∞, so the graph is IV.

26.  = cos2 ,  = sin2 ,  = .  +  = cos2  + sin2  = 1, so the curve lies in the vertical plane  +  = 1.
 and  are periodic, both with period , and  increases as  increases, so the graph is III.

27. If  =  cos ,  =  sin ,  = , then 2 +  2 = 2 cos2  + 2 sin2  = 2 =  2 ,

so the curve lies on the cone  2 = 2 +  2 . Since  = , the curve is a spiral on

this cone.

28. Here 2 = sin2  =  and 2 +  2 = sin2  + cos2  = 1, so the

curve is contained in the intersection of the parabolic cylinder

 = 2 with the circular cylinder 2 +  2 = 1. We get the complete

intersection for 0 ≤  ≤ 2.

29. Here  = 2,  =  ,  = 2 . Then  = 2  =  = 2 , so the curve lies on the cylinder  = 2 . Also

 2
 = 2 =  , so the curve lies on the cylinder  =  . Since  = 2 =  =  2 , the curve also lies on the parabolic

cylinder  =  2 .
√ √
30. Here  = 2 ,  = ln ,  = 1. The domain of r is (0 ∞), so  = 2 ⇒ = ⇒  = ln . Thus one surface

√ √
containing the curve is the cylinder  = ln  or  = ln 12 = 12 ln . Also  = 1 = 1 , so the curve also lies on the

cylinder  = 1  or  = 1 2 ,   0. Finally  = 1 ⇒  = 1 ⇒  = ln (1), so the curve also lies on the

cylinder  = ln(1) or  = ln  −1 = − ln . Note that the surface  = ln() also contains the curve, since

ln() = ln(2 · 1) = ln  = .

31. Parametric equations for the curve are  = ,  = 0,  = 2 − 2 . Substituting into the equation of the paraboloid

gives 2 − 2 = 2 ⇒ 2 = 22 ⇒  = 0, 1. Since r(0) = 0 and r(1) = i + k, the points of intersection


are (0 0 0) and (1 0 1).

32. Parametric equations for the helix are  = sin ,  = cos ,  = . Substituting into the equation of the sphere gives

sin2  + cos2  + 2 = 5 ⇒ 1 + 2 = 5 ⇒  = ±2. Since r(2) = hsin 2 cos 2 2i and


r(−2) = hsin(−2) cos(−2) −2i, the points of intersection are (sin 2 cos 2 2) ≈ (0909 −0416 2) and
(sin(−2) cos(−2) −2) ≈ (−0909 −0416 −2).

From the projection onto the -plane we see that from above the curve appears to be shaped like a “figure eight.”
The curve can be visualized as this shape wrapped around an almost parabolic cylindrical surface, the profile of
which is visible in the projection onto the -plane.

39.  = (1 + cos 16) cos ,  = (1 + cos 16) sin ,  = 1 + cos 16. At any
point on the graph,

2 +  2 = (1 + cos 16)2 cos2  + (1 + cos 16)2 sin2 


= (1 + cos 16)2 =  2 , so the graph lies on the cone 2 +  2 =  2 .

From the graph at left, we see that this curve looks like the projection of a
leaved two-dimensional curve onto a cone.

√ √
40. = 1 − 025 cos2 10 cos ,  = 1 − 025 cos2 10 sin ,
 = 05 cos 10. At any point on the graph,

2 +  2 +  2 = (1 − 025 cos2 10) cos2 


+(1 − 025 cos2 10) sin2  + 025 cos2 

= 1 − 025 cos2 10 + 025 cos2 10 = 1,

so the graph lies on the sphere 2 +  2 +  2 = 1, and since  = 05 cos 10
the graph resembles a trigonometric curve with ten peaks projected onto the
sphere. We get the complete graph for 0 ≤  ≤ 2.

41. If  = −1, then  = 1,  = 4,  = 0, so the curve passes through the point (1 4 0). If  = 3, then  = 9,  = −8,  = 28,

so the curve passes through the point (9 −8 28). For the point (4 7 −6) to be on the curve, we require  = 1 − 3 = 7 ⇒

 = −2 But then  = 1 + (−2)3 = −7 6= −6, so (4 7 −6) is not on the curve.

42. The projection of the curve  of intersection onto the -plane is the circle 2 +  2 = 4,  = 0.
Then we can write  = 2 cos ,  = 2 sin , 0 ≤  ≤ 2. Since  also lies on the surface  = , we have
 =  = (2 cos )(2 sin ) = 4 cos  sin , or 2 sin(2). Then parametric equations for  are  = 2 cos ,  = 2 sin ,
 = 2 sin(2), 0 ≤  ≤ 2, and the corresponding vector function is r() = 2 cos  i + 2 sin  j + 2 sin(2) k, 0 ≤  ≤ 2.

43. Both equations are solved for , so we can substitute to eliminate : 2 +  2 = 1 +  ⇒ 2 +  2 = 1 + 2 +  2 ⇒
2
 = 1 + 2 ⇒ = 1

(2 − 1). We can form parametric equations for the curve  of intersection by choosing a

parameter  = , then  = 12 (2 − 1) and  = 1 +  = 1 + 12 (2 − 1) = 12 (2 + 1). Thus a vector function representing 

is r() =  i + 12 (2 − 1) j + 12 (2 + 1) k.

44. The projection of the curve  of intersection onto the -plane is the parabola  = 2 ,  = 0. Then we can choose the

parameter  =  ⇒  = 2 . Since  also lies on the surface  = 42 +  2 , we have  = 42 +  2 = 42 + (2 )2 .

Then parametric equations for  are  = ,  = 2 ,  = 42 + 4 , and the corresponding vector function

is r() =  i + 2 j + (42 + 4 ) k.

 = sin , 0 ≤  ≤ 2. Since  also lies on the surface  = 2 −  2 , we have  = 2 −  2 = cos2  − sin2  or cos 2.
Thus parametric equations for  are  = cos ,  = sin ,  = cos 2, 0 ≤  ≤ 2, and the corresponding vector function

Thus parametric equations for  are  = cos ,  = 3 | cos  |,  = sin , 0 ≤  ≤ 2, and the corresponding vector function

The tangent line is parallel to this vector and passes through (3 4 2), so a vector equation for the line

32. (a) The tangent line at  = 0 is the line through the point with position vector r(0) = hsin 0 2 sin 0 cos 0i = h0 0 1i, and in

the direction of the tangent vector, r0 (0) = h cos 0 2 cos 0 − sin 0i = h 2 0i. So an equation of the line is

between these two tangent vectors, then cos  = √11√6 h1 0 0i · h1 2 1i = √16 and  = cos−1 √16 ≈ 66◦ .

34. To find the point of intersection, we must find the values of  and  which satisfy the following three equations simultaneously:

 = 3 − , 1 −  =  − 2, 3 + 2 = 2 . Solving the last two equations gives  = 1,  = 2 (check these in the first equation).
Thus the point of intersection is (1 0 4). To find the angle  of intersection, we proceed as in Exercise 33. The tangent

vectors to the respective curves at (1 0 4) are r01 (1) = h1 −1 2i and r02 (2) = h−1 1 4i. So

58. The tangent vector r0 () is defined as lim . Here we assume that this limit exists and r0 () 6= 0; then we know
→0 
that this vector lies on the tangent line to the curve. As in Figure 1, let points  and  have position vectors r() and r( + ).

The vector r( + ) − r() points from  to , so r( + ) − r() =  . If   0 then    + , so  lies “ahead”

−→
of  on the curve. If  is sufficiently small (we can take  to be as small as we like since  → 0) then   approximates

the curve from  to  and hence points approximately in the direction of the curve as  increases. Since  is positive,

1− −→ r( + ) − r()
 = points in the same direction. If   0, then    +  so  lies “behind”  on the curve. For 

sufficiently small,   approximates the curve but points in the direction of decreasing . However,  is negative, so

1−−→ r( + ) − r()


 = points in the opposite direction, that is, in the direction of increasing . In both cases, the difference
 
r( + ) − r()
quotient points in the direction of increasing . The tangent vector r0 () is the limit of this difference quotient,

so it must also point in the direction of increasing .

explained by the fact that  = −2 increases asymptotically at the origin from both

The asymptotes in the graph of () correspond to the sharp cusps we see in the graph of r(). The space curve bends most

sharply as it approaches these cusps (mostly in the -direction) and bends most gradually between these, near its intersections

with the -plane, where  =  + 2 ( an integer). (The bending we see in the -direction on the curve near these points is

deceiving; most of the curvature occurs in the -direction.) The curvature graph has local minima at these values of .

We plot the space curve and its curvature function for −5 ≤  ≤ 5 below.

From the graph of () we see that curvature is maximized for  = 0, so the curve bends most sharply at the point (0 1 0).

The curve bends more gradually as we move away from this point, becoming almost linear. This is reflected in the curvature

graph, where () becomes nearly 0 as || increases.

38. Notice that the curve  is highest for the same -values at which curve  is turning more sharply, and  is 0 or near 0 where  is

nearly straight. So,  must be the graph of  = (), and  is the graph of  =  ().

39. Notice that the curve  has two inflection points at which the graph appears almost straight. We would expect the curvature to

be 0 or nearly 0 at these values, but the curve  isn’t near 0 there. Thus,  must be the graph of  =  () rather than the graph

of curvature, and  is the graph of  = ().

9 h6 −6 3i is normal to the osculating plane.

We can take the parallel vector h2 −2 1i as a normal vector for the plane, so an equation is

2( − 0) − 2( − 2) + 1( − 1) = 0 or 2 − 2 +  = −3.

Note: Since r0 (1) is parallel to T(1) and T0 (1) is parallel to N(1), we could have taken r0 (1) × T0 (1) as a normal vector for

the plane.

51. The ellipse is given by the parametric equations  = 2 cos ,  = 3 sin , so using the result from Exercise 42,

the osculating circle has radius 1 and center (0 1), and hence equation 2 + ( − 1)2 = 1. The curvature at 1 12

54. To find the osculating plane, we first calculate the unit tangent and normal vectors.

In Maple, we use the VectorCalculus package and set r:= tˆ3,3*t,tˆ4;. After differentiating, the

In Mathematica, we define the vector function r={tˆ3,3*t,tˆ4} and use the command Dt to differentiate. We find

T() by dividing the result by its magnitude, computed using the Norm command. (You may wish to include the option

Element[t,Reals] to obtain simpler expressions.) N() is found similarly, and we use Cross[T,N] to find B().

Now B() is parallel to 62  −24  −3 , so if B() is parallel to h1 1 1i for some  6= 0 [since B(0) = 0], then

no such osculating plane.

(c) B = T × N ⇒ T ⊥ N, B ⊥ T and B ⊥ N. So B, T and N form an orthogonal set of vectors in the three-

dimensional space R3 . From parts (a) and (b), B is perpendicular to both B and T, so B is parallel to N.

Therefore, B = − ()N, where  () is a scalar.

(d) Since B = T × N, T ⊥ N and both T and N are unit vectors, B is a unit vector mutually perpendicular to both T and

N. For a plane curve, T and N always lie in the plane of the curve, so that B is a constant unit vector always

perpendicular to the plane. Thus B = 0, but B = − ()N and N 6= 0, so  () = 0.

For  0 to be continuous, we must have  0 (0) =  0 (1) = 0. The curvature of the curve  =  () at the point (  ())

| 00 ()|
is () =  32 . For () to be continuous, we must have  (0) =  (1) = 0.

1 + [ 0 ()]2

Write  () = 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 +  +  . Then  0 () = 54 + 43 + 32 + 2 +  and

 00 () = 203 + 122 + 6 + 2. Our six conditions are:

 (0) = 0 ⇒  =0 (1)  (1) = 1 ⇒ +++++ = 1 (2)

 0 (0) = 0 ⇒ =0 (3)  0 (1) = 0 ⇒ 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 +  = 0 (4)

 00 (0) = 0 ⇒ =0 (5)  00 (1) = 0 ⇒ 20 + 12 + 6 + 2 = 0 (6)

From (1), (3), and (5), we have  =  =  = 0. Thus (2), (4) and (6) become (7)  +  +  = 1, (8) 5 + 4 + 3 = 0,
and (9) 10 + 6 + 3 = 0. Subtracting (8) from (9) gives (10) 5 + 2 = 0. Multiplying (7) by 3 and subtracting from
(8) gives (11) 2 +  = −3. Multiplying (11) by 2 and subtracting from (10) gives  = 6. By (10),  = −15.

By (7),  = 10. Thus,  () = 65 − 154 + 103 .

Similarly, over the other intervals we have

[1 15] : vave = = = 28 i + 08 j − 04 k
15 − 1 05

(b) We can estimate the velocity at  = 1 by averaging the average velocities over the time intervals [05 1] and [1 15]:

v(1) ≈ 12 [(2 i − 24 j − 06 k) + (28 i + 08 j − 04 k)] = 24 i − 08 j − 05 k. Then the speed is

|v(1)| ≈ (24)2 + (−08)2 + (−05)2 ≈ 258.

2. (a) The average velocity over 2 ≤  ≤ 24 is


r(24) − r(2)
= 25 [r(24) − r(2)], so we sketch a vector in the same
24 − 2

direction but 25 times the length of [r(24) − r(2)] .

(b) The average velocity over 15 ≤  ≤ 2 is


r(2) − r(15)
= 2[r(2) − r(15)], so we sketch a vector in the
2 − 15
same direction but twice the length of [r(2) − r(15)].

r(2 + ) − r(2)
(c) Using Equation 2 we have v(2) = lim .
→0 

(d) v(2) is tangent to the curve at r(2) and points in the direction of
increasing . Its length is the speed of the particle at  = 2. We can
estimate the speed by averaging the lengths of the vectors found in
parts (a) and (b) which represent the average speed over 2 ≤  ≤ 24 and
15 ≤  ≤ 2 respectively. Using the axes scale as a guide, we estimate the
vectors to have lengths 28 and 27. Thus, we estimate the speed at  = 2

to be |v(2)| ≈ 12 (28 + 27) = 275 and we draw the velocity vector v(2)

with this length.

at  = 4 units of time.

20. Since r() = 3 i + 2 j + 3 k, a() = r00 () = 6 i + 2 j + 6 k. By Newton’s Second Law,

F() =  a() = 6 i + 2 j + 6 k is the required force.

21. |F()| = 20 N in the direction of the positive -axis, so F() = 20 k. Also  = 4 kg, r(0) = 0 and v(0) = i − j.

Since 20k = F() = 4 a(), a() = 5 k. Then v() = 5 k + c1 where c1 = i − j so v() = i − j + 5 k and the
√ √
speed is |v()| = 1 + 1 + 252 = 252 + 2. Also r() =  i −  j + 52 2 k + c2 and 0 = r(0), so c2 = 0

and r() =  i −  j + 52 2 k.

22. The argument here is the same as that in Example 13.2.4 with r() replaced by v() and r0 () replaced by a().

j = 100 i + 100 3 j and if we set up the axes so that the

projectile starts at the origin, then r(0) = 0. Ignoring air resistance, the only force is that due to gravity, so

F() = a() = − j where  ≈ 98 ms2 . Thus a() = −98 j and, integrating, we have v() = −98 j + C. But

As in Example 5, we have r () = − 12 2 j +  v0 + D where D = r(0) = 3 j and v0 = 0 cos  i + 0 sin  j,

so r() = (0 cos ) i + (0 sin ) − 12 2 + 3 j. Thus, parametric equations for the trajectory of the ball are

 = (0 cos ),  = (0 sin ) − 12 2 + 3. The ball reaches the fence when  = 400 ⇒

clears the fence.

35. If r0 () = c × r() then r0 () is perpendicular to both c and r(). Remember that r0 () points in the direction of motion, so if

r0 () is always perpendicular to c, the path of the particle must lie in a plane perpendicular to c. But r0 () is also perpendicular

to the position vector r() which confines the path to a sphere centered at the origin. Considering both restrictions, the path
must be contained in a circle that lies in a plane perpendicular to c, and the circle is centered on a line through the origin in the
direction of c.

36. (a) From Equation 7 we have a =  0 T +  2 N. If a particle moves along a straight line, then  = 0 [see Section 13.3], so the

acceleration vector becomes a =  0 T. Because the acceleration vector is a scalar multiple of the unit tangent vector, it is
parallel to the tangent vector.

(b) If the speed of the particle is constant, then  0 = 0 and Equation 7 gives a =  2 N. Thus the acceleration vector is
parallel to the unit normal vector (which is perpendicular to the tangent vector and points in the direction that the curve is
turning).

43. The tangential component of a is the length of the projection of a onto T, so we sketch

the scalar projection of a in the tangential direction to the curve and estimate its length to
be 45 (using the fact that a has length 10 as a guide). Similarly, the normal component of
a is the length of the projection of a onto N, so we sketch the scalar projection of a in the

normal direction to the curve and estimate its length to be 90. Thus  ≈ 45 cms2 and

 ≈ 90 cms2 .

So if the torque is always 0, then L0 () = 0 for all , and so L() is constant.

1. True. If we reparametrize the curve by replacing  = 3 , we have r() =  i + 2 j + 3 k, which is a line through the origin

with direction vector i + 2 j + 3 k.

2. True. Parametric equations for the curve are  = 0,  = 2 ,  = 4, and since  = 4 we have  = 2 = (4)2 or

16  ,
1 2
=  = 0. This is an equation of a parabola in the -plane.

3. False. The vector function represents a line, but the line does not pass through the origin; the -component is 0 only for  = 0

which corresponds to the point (0 3 0) not (0 0 0).

4. True. See Theorem 13.2.2.

7. False.  is the magnitude of the rate of change of the unit tangent vector T with respect to arc length , not with respect to .

8. False. The binormal vector, by the definition given in Section 13.3, is B() = T() × N() = − [N() × T()].

9. True. At an inflection point where  is twice continuously differentiable we must have  00 () = 0, and by Equation 13.3.11,

the curvature is 0 there.

10. True. From Equation 13.3.9 , () = 0 ⇔ |T0 ()| = 0 ⇔ T0 () = 0 for all . But then T() = C, a constant vector,
which is true only for a straight line.

11. False. If r() is the position of a moving particle at time  and |r()| = 1 then the particle lies on the unit circle or the unit

r0 () = 1 − 1 − 2 and |r()| = 2 + 1 − 2 = 1 but |r0 ()| = 1 + 2 (1 − 2 ) = 1 1 − 2 which is not
constant.

12. True. See Example 4 in Section 13.2 .

13. True. See the discussion preceding Example 7 in Section 13.3.

14. False. For example, r1 () = h i and r2 () = h2 2i both represent the same plane curve (the line  = ), but the tangent

vector r01 () = h1 1i for all , while r02 () = h2 2i. In fact, different parametrizations give parallel tangent vectors at a point,
but their magnitudes may differ.

1. (a) The corresponding parametric equations for the curve are  = ,

 = cos ,  = sin . Since 2 +  2 = 1, the curve is contained in a


circular cylinder with axis the -axis. Since  = , the curve is a helix.

(b) r() =  i + cos  j + sin  k ⇒


r0 () = i −  sin  j +  cos  k ⇒
r00 () = −2 cos  j −  2 sin  k

2. (a) The expressions 2 − , ( − 1), and ln( + 1) are all defined when 2 −  ≥ 0 ⇒  ≤ 2,  6= 0,

9. The angle of intersection of the two curves, , is the angle between their respective tangents at the point of intersection.

For both curves the point (1 0 0) occurs when  = 0.

r01 () = − sin  i + cos  j + k ⇒ r01 (0) = j + k and r02 () = i + 2 j + 32 k ⇒ r02 (0) = i.

r01 (0) · r02 (0) = (j + k) · i = 0. Therefore, the curves intersect in a right angle, that is,  = 90◦ .

21. Example 13.4.5 showed that the maximum horizontal range is achieved with an angle of elevation of 45 ◦ . In this case,

however, the projectile would hit the top of the tunnel using that angle. The horizontal range will be maximized with the
largest angle of elevation that keeps the projectile within a height of 30 m. From Example 13.4.5 we know that the position

function of the projectile is r() = (0 cos ) i + (0 sin ) − 12 2 j and the velocity is

v() = r0 () = (0 cos ) i + [(0 sin ) − ] j. The projectile achieves its maximum height when the vertical component of

23. (a) Instead of proceeding directly, we use Formula 3 of Theorem 13.2.3: r() =  R() ⇒

v = r0 () = R() +  R0 () = cos  i + sin  j +  v .

(b) Using the same method as in part (a) and starting with v = R() +  R0 (), we have

a = v0 = R0 () + R0 () +  R00 () = 2 R0 () +  R00 () = 2 v +  a .

(c) Here we have r() = − cos  i + − sin  j = − R(). So, as in parts (a) and (b),

v = r0 () = − R0 () − − R() = − [R0 () − R()] ⇒

a = v0 = − [R00 () − R0 ()] − − [R0 () − R()] = − [R00 () − 2 R0 () + R()]

= − a − 2− v + − R

Thus, the Coriolis acceleration (the sum of the “extra” terms not involving a ) is −2− v + − R.

Now lim 1 − 2 = 1 =  (0) and lim

So  does not have continuous curvature.

(b) Set  () = 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 +  +  . The continuity conditions on  are  (0) = 0,  (1) = 1,  0 (0) = 0 and

 0 (1) = 1. Also the curvature must be continuous. For  ≤ 0 and  ≥ 1, () = 0; elsewhere

| 00 ()|
() = , so we need  00 (0) = 0 and  00 (1) = 0.
(1 + [ 0 ()]2 )32

The conditions  (0) =  0 (0) =  00 (0) = 0 imply that  =  =  = 0.


The other conditions imply that  +  +  = 1, 5 + 4 + 3 = 1, and
10 + 6 + 3 = 0. From these, we find that  = 3,  = −8, and  = 6.
Therefore  () = 35 − 84 + 63 . Since there was no solution with
 = 0, this could not have been done with a polynomial of degree 4.

4. (a) As in Problem 3, r() = (0 cos ) i + (0 sin ) − 12 2 j, so  = (0 cos ) and  = (0 sin ) − 12 2 . The

difference here is that the projectile travels until it reaches a point where   0 and  = −(tan ). (Here 0 ≤  ≤ 

equations are defined for  in the interval 0 (tan  + tan ) .

(b) The downhill range (that is, the distance to the projectile’s landing point as

measured along the inclined plane) is () =  sec , where  is the

coordinate of the landing point calculated in part (a). Thus

This condition implies that cos(2 + ) = 0 ⇒ 2 +  = 2 ⇒  = 12 2 −  .

(c) The solution is similar to the solutions to parts (a) and (b). This time the projectile travels until it reaches a point where

  0 and  = (tan ). Since tan  = − tan(−), we obtain the solution from the previous one by replacing  with −.
 
The desired angle is  = 12 2 +  .

(d) As observed in part (c), firing the projectile up an inclined plane with angle of inclination  involves the same equations as
in parts (a) and (b) but with  replaced by −. So if  is the distance up an inclined plane, we know from part (b) that

(0) = 0, (2) =  2 , and (09855) ≈ 120 2 . Thus the distance traveled by the projectile is maximized

8. As the cable is wrapped around the spool, think of the top or bottom of the
cable forming a helix of radius  + . Let  be the vertical distance
between coils. Then, from similar triangles,

If we parametrize the helix by () = ( + ) cos , () = ( + ) sin , then we must have () = [(2)].

9. We can write the vector equation as r() = a2 + b + c where a = h1  2  3 i, b = h1  2  3 i, and c = h1  2  3 i.

Then r0 () = 2 a + b which says that each tangent vector is the sum of a scalar multiple of a and the vector b. Thus the
tangent vectors are all parallel to the plane determined by a and b so the curve must be parallel to this plane. [Here we assume
that a and b are nonparallel. Otherwise the tangent vectors are all parallel and the curve lies along a single line.] A normal

vector for the plane is a × b = h2 3 − 3 2  3 1 − 1 3  1 2 − 2 1 i. The point (1, 2 , 3 ) lies on the plane (when
 = 0), so an equation of the plane is

(2 3 − 3 2 )( − 1 ) + (3 1 − 1 3 )( − 2 ) + (1 2 − 2 1 )( − 3 ) = 0


or
(2 3 − 3 2 ) + (3 1 − 1 3 ) + (1 2 − 2 1 ) = 2 3 1 − 3 2 1 + 3 1 2 − 1 3 2 + 1 2 3 − 2 1 3
