題目
Problem
PART 1: Fill in the blanks.
-
Work need not be shown, only answers will be graded.
-
4 points for each blank and 100 points total.
-
Each answer need to be clearly labeled on the answer sheet.
-
Use of any device with computer algebra system during the exam will result in zero points.
-
Let r(t)=(etcost,etsint,et),−1≤t≤1.
- The length of the curve is (17).
- The curvature at the point t=0 is (18).

弧長由速度大小積分;曲率則直接使用空間曲線的叉積公式。
答題過程
展開
r′(t)=et(cost−sint,sint+cost,1),∣r′(t)∣=3et.
因此弧長為
∫−113etdt=3(e−e−1).
在 t=0,r′=(1,1,1)、r′′=(0,2,1),故
κ=∣r′∣3∣r′×r′′∣=(3)36=32.
