弧长与弧长参数

参数化曲线的长度是速度的积分,长度不依赖于参数化方式,而弧长参数则使曲线以单位速率行进。

1. Length is accumulated speed

Length is accumulated speed

2. Length belongs to the curve, not the walk

Length belongs to the curve, not the walk

3. Walking at unit speed: the arclength parameter

Walking at unit speed: the arclength parameter

4. Setting up a length integral

Which integral gives the length of the curve r(t)=(t,t2,0)\mathbf{r}(t) = (t, t^2, 0) for 0≤t≤10 \le t \le 1?

5. A helix length

What is the length of the helix r(t)=(cos⁡t,sin⁡t,t)\mathbf{r}(t) = (\cos t, \sin t, t) over 0≤t≤2π0 \le t \le 2\pi?

6. Reparametrization invariance

Two parametrizations of the same curve segment are used to compute length. What is the relation between the two results?

7. Climbing price of the helix

The helix r(t)=(cos⁡t,sin⁡t,t)\mathbf{r}(t) = (\cos t, \sin t, t) over 0≤t≤2π0 \le t \le 2\pi shadows a full unit circle. Give the ratio of the helix's length to the circle's circumference 2π2\pi, as a plain number or expression like sqrt(2).

8. Arclength parameter of the helix

For the helix r(t)=(cos⁡t,sin⁡t,t)\mathbf{r}(t) = (\cos t, \sin t, t) starting at t=0t = 0, the arclength function is s(t)=c⋅ts(t) = c \cdot t. Give the constant cc, as a plain number or expression like sqrt(2).
