1 Tangent and Normal Vector - (.5). Principal Unit Normal Vector Let C be the curve traced out by the vector-valued function rt vector T t r r t t is the unit tangent vector to the curve C. Now define N t T t T t The vector N t is called the principal unit normal vector. Observe that N t is a unit vector N t is in the same direction as T t N t and T t are perpendicular. The reason is the following. It is known if vt c then. vt c vt vt c xt, yt, zt. We know the v t vt vt v t vt v t 0 vt v t 0 So, vt and v t are perpendicular. Since T t, T t T t 0. N t T t T t T t T t T t T t T t 0 N t dt t N t T t T t dt t, 0. N t will always point to the direction in which T t is turning as arc length increases and point to the concave side of the curve. Example () Let the helix C be traced out by rt cost, sint, t. a. Find the unit tangent and principal unit normal vectors to the curve at anytime t. b. Sketch the helix C and the unit tangent and principal unit normal vectors when t a. and t.

TNB frame - a frame of reference formed by vectors T, N and B. basis of the 3-D space (as i, j and k form a basis of the 3-D space). Vectors T, N and B form a 3. Normal Plane and Osculating Plane The plane spanned by vectors N t and B t is called the normal plane. The plane spanned by T t and N t is called the osculating plane. Note that The normal vector to the normal plane ist t and the normal vector to the osculating plane is B t. The osculating circle (or the circle of curvature) is the circle of radius for 0 lying completely in the osculating plane. is called the radius of curvature and the center of curvature is the center of the osculating circle. For example: in a -D plane: in a 3-D space: Example () Find the osculating circle (the equation) of the curve traced out by rt t, t 3 at t.

Tangential and Normal Components of Acceleration Suppose that the position of an object at the time t can be described by the end point of rt. Then the velocity and acceleration vectors of the object are vt and at, respectively. Recall that vectors T t and N t are orthogonal and form a basis for a -dimensional plane in space. Consider vt r t r t T t T t at v t d N t T t T t d s T t T t T t T t T t N t T t dt at d s T t T t d s T t N t Tangential component of acceleration: a T d s, depending on the rate of change of the speed Normal components of acceleration: a N square Compute a N without computing : 5, depending on the curvature and speed
6 Fact: if u and v are orthogonal then u v u v by the Pythegorean Theorem. Here T and N are orthogonal and are unit vectors ( T t and N t ). So, at at a N a N at a T since a N 0.
