Radius of curvature and center of curvature. In differential geometry, the radius of curvature, R, is the reciprocal of the curvature. For a curve, it equals the radius of the circular arc which best approximates the curve at that point. For surfaces, the radius of curvature is the radius of a circle that best fits a normal section or ...
Consider a body of one kilogram, moving in a circle of radius one metre, with an angular velocity of one radian per second. The speed is 1 metre per second. The inward acceleration is 1 metre per square second, v 2 /r. It is subject to a centripetal force of 1 kilogram metre per square second, which is 1 newton. The momentum of the body is 1 kg ...
is equal to one. This parametrization gives the same value for the curvature, as it amounts to division by r 3 in both the numerator and the denominator in the preceding formula. The same circle can also be defined by the implicit equation F(x, y) = 0 with F(x, y) = x 2 + y 2 – r 2. Then, the formula for the curvature in this case gives
This line is called the axis of rotation. Then the radius vectors from the axis to all particles undergo the same angular displacement at the same time. The axis of rotation need not go through the body. In general, any rotation can be specified completely by the three angular displacements with respect to the rectangular-coordinate axes x, y ...
CATIA (/ k ə ˈ t iː ə /, an acronym of computer-aided three-dimensional interactive application) is a multi-platform software suite for computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), computer-aided engineering (CAE), 3D modeling and product lifecycle management (PLM), developed by the French company Dassault Systèmes.
If the radii are equal, the radical axis is the line segment bisector of M 1, M 2. In any case the radical axis is a line perpendicular to ¯. On notations. The notation radical axis was used by the French mathematician M. Chasles as axe radical. [1] J.V. Poncelet used chorde ideale. [2]
The cycloid through the origin, generated by a circle of radius r rolling over the x-axis on the positive side (y ≥ 0), consists of the points (x, y), with = () = (), where t is a real parameter corresponding to the angle through which the rolling circle has rotated.
In the following equations, denotes the sagitta (the depth or height of the arc), equals the radius of the circle, and the length of the chord spanning the base of the arc. As 1 2 l {\displaystyle {\tfrac {1}{2}}l} and r − s {\displaystyle r-s} are two sides of a right triangle with r {\displaystyle r} as the hypotenuse , the Pythagorean ...
