Step 1
The given vector equation is $r(t) = 2 \sin(t)i + 4 \cos(t)j$. To find $r'(t)$, we need to differentiate each component of the vector with respect to $t$. The derivative of a vector function $r(t) = f(t)i + g(t)j$ is $r'(t) = f'(t)i + g'(t)j$. In this case, Show more…

For the given position vectors r(t), compute the tangent velocity vector r'(t) for the given value of t. A) Let r(t) = (cos 2t, sin 2t). Then r'(t) = (-2sin 2t, 2cos 2t). B) Let r(t) = (t^2, t^3). Then r'(2) = (4, 12). C) Let r(t) = e^2ti + e^-2tj + tk. Then r'(3) = 2e^6i - 2e^-6j + k.
