Find the curve the length of the curve define by r= <2t^3/2, cos 2t, sin 2t >, 0=

differentiate the r with respect to t let me know what you get .
r'(t) = ???
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i think is r' = <1/2 t^1/2, -2sin 2t, 2 cos 2t>?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
check it again i think first term shuld be 3t^1/2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes is 3 ^1/2 cuz 2 3/2 t^ 3/2 -1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now magnitude?

ok good
take mangitude of r'(t) .
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sqrt(3 t^1/2)^2+(2sin 2t)^2+ (2 cos 2t)^2
(9 t^1/4)+4sin^2 2t+ 4cos^2 2t
OpenStudy (anonymous):
this part is were im stuck
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so far i know that sin^2 + cos^2=1 but 4sin^2 2t+ 4cos^2 2t
OpenStudy (anonymous):
still cos^2(2t)+sin^2(2t) =1 just take out 4 as common !

ok i see @sami-21
4 (cos^2(2t)+sin^2(2t))
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes .
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sqrt (9 t^1/4)+4= 3 t^1/2+2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
check it again !!! you cannot take square root like that .
OpenStudy (anonymous):
k

is 3 t^1/8 + 2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\Large |r'(t)|= \sqrt{(3t^\frac{1}{2})^2+(2\sin(2t)^2+(2\cos(2t)^2}\]
simplify
\[\Large |r'(t)|=\sqrt{9t+4}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what happen to the 1/2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it is squared !
OpenStudy (anonymous):
one minute 1/2 is the same as sqrt

OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes it is same .
OpenStudy (anonymous):
got it
so | r'(t)| =3t+4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
there is sqrt as well :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now integrate |r'(t)| fom 0..1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\Large Length=\int\limits_{0}^{1} \sqrt{3t+4}dt\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):
is \[\sqrt{3t+2}?\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
cuz 4 is perfect squared
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry i did mistake .
OpenStudy (anonymous):
because |r'(t)|= sqrt{9t+4}
\[\Large Length=\int\limits_{0}^{1}\sqrt{9t+4}dt\]
can you integrate this
OpenStudy (anonymous):
chain rule?

yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1/2 (9t +4)^-1/2 * 9= 9/ 2 sqrt (9t+4)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now how inegrate this |dw:1360031326945:dw|
