- A gear train consists of three gears meshed together (Figure 9). The middle gear is known as an idler. Show that the angular velocity of the third gear does not depend on the number of teeth of the idler gear (Gear 2).arrow_forwardFind an equation of the tangent line to the parabola y=3x2 at the point 1,3.arrow_forwardFind the arc length from (0, 3) clockwise to (2, √5) along the circle x2 + y2 = 9.arrow_forward
- Show that the line of slope t through (-1, 0) intersects the unit circle in the point with coordinates 1- 12 2t х t2 + y : t2 +1 Conclude that these equations parametrize the unit circle with the point (-1,0) excluded (Figure 23). Show further that t = y/(x+1). (r, y) Slope t (-1,0) FIGURE 23 Unit circle.arrow_forwardLet L be the line with parametric equations x = 2+2t y = 3 z = 4+3t Find the shortest distance d from the point Po=(-3, -3, 4) to L, and the point Q on L that is closest to Po. Use the square root symbol 'V' where needed to give an exact value for your answer.arrow_forwardA point starts at the location (x, y) = (6,0) and moves CCW along a circular path that is centered at (x, y) constant speed. Imagine an angle with a vertex at (0, 0) subtending the object's path. The angle sweeps out 4 radians per second, and let t represent the varying number of seconds that have elapsed since the point started moving. (Draw a diagram to represent this!) (0, 0). The point moves at a a. Write a formula that expresses the x-coordinate of the point in terms of t. (Hint: Start by expressing the angle measure, 0, in terms of t.) Preview b. How long does it take the point to complete one full lap around the circular path? (Hint: The angle must sweep out 27 radians for the point to complete one full lap, and the angle sweeps out 4 radians per second.) seconds Previewarrow_forward
