Transcribed Image Text:Question
The position of a drone at time t≥ 0 (in minutes) is given by the parametric function.
x = a(t) cos(3nt) + b(t)cos
4πt
y = a(t) sin(3πt) + b(t)sin (4)
where a(t) and b(t) are functions of time. Both x and y are measured in metres.
a) Show the squared distance from the origin, i.e. d² = x² + y²,can be written
d² = (a(t))² + (b(t))² + 2a(t)b(t)cos (
b) If the functions a(t) and b(t)
5πt
5πt
a(t) = 4+2cos
3
5πt
b(t) = 1 -4cos (5)
now show the squared distance from the origin, i.e. d² = x² + y², can be
rewritten as d² = -16 cos³ -8 cos²
5nt
'5πt'
+16cos
5πt
+17
c) Using (b) find algebraically all times, t≥0 (in exact form i.e. in terms of
fractions) when the distance d is 3 mi.e. d = 3 or d² = 9.
Hint. periodic solutions can be represented in the form t = a + nT where a is
one solution, T is the period, and n is an integer n = 0,1 ....
