  5. Vector Applications Section 10.2b

  6. Suppose the motion of a particle in a plane is represented by parametric equations. The tangent line, suitably directed, models the direction of the motion at the point of tangency. y A vector is tangent or normal to a curve at a point P if it is parallel or normal, respectively, to the line that is tangent to the curve at P. x

  7. Finding Vectors Tangent and Normal to a Curve Find unit vectors tangent and normal to the parametrized curve at the point where . Coordinates of the point: A graph of what we seek: y n u –u –n x

  8. Finding Vectors Tangent and Normal to a Curve Find unit vectors tangent and normal to the parametrized curve at the point where . Tangent slope: A basic vector with a slope of 1/2: To find the unit vector, divide v by its magnitude:

  9. Finding Vectors Tangent and Normal to a Curve Find unit vectors tangent and normal to the parametrized curve at the point where . The other unit vector: To find the normal vectors (with opposite reciprocal slopes), interchange components and change one of the signs:

  10. Finding Ground Speed and Direction An airplane, flying due east at 500 mph in still air, encounters a 70-mph tail wind acting in the direction north of east. The airplane holds its compass heading due east but, because of the wind, acquires a new ground speed and direction. What are they? Let a = airplane velocity and w = wind velocity. N We need the magnitude of the resultant a + w and the measure of angle theta. w a + w E a

  12. Finding Ground Speed and Direction An airplane, flying due east at 500 mph in still air, encounters a 70-mph tail wind acting in the direction north of east. The airplane holds its compass heading due east but, because of the wind, acquires a new ground speed and direction. What are they? Direction angle: N w a + w E a The new ground speed of the airplane is approximately 538.424 mph, and its new direction is about 6.465 degrees north of east.
