Determine the square of the arc element for the curvilinear coordinate system
(u,v,w) whose coordinates are related to the Cartesian coordinates as follows:
x = 3u + v − w; y = u + 2v + 2w;z = 2u − v − w.
Coordinates whose curves are mutually perpendicular at each point are called …………
Cylindrical Coordinates
Spherical Coordinates
Orthogonal Curvilinear coordinates
Ellipsonic Cylindrical Coordinates
1)Find the point of maximum curvature on the graph of y=e^(x)
2)Find the minimum and maximum curvatures of the ellipse r(t)=(acost,bsint),0<=t<=2pi, where a>b
A curve has the equation y = x/16 * (5-x)^4. Calculates the values of x for which dy/dx =0 . Given that a small change,p,is made in the x-coordinate at the point (4,0.25), calculate,in terms of p, the approximate change in the y-coordinate .
