Homework SourseFind the normal and tangential components of the acceleratio
Find the normal and tangential components of the acceleration of the particle r(t)=<t,t,1-t^2>?
Solution
since they only ask for the normal and tangent and not for their unit vector all you have to do is take the derivatives
T(t) = r\'(t) = <1,1,-2t>
N(t)=r\"(t) = T\'(t) = <0,0,-2>
