May 28, 2023 · The right hand side of the parametric equation \((x,y,z)=(1,1,0)+t\left \langle 1,2,-2 \right \rangle\) that we just saw in Warning 1.5.3 is a vector-valued function of the one real variable \(t\text{.}\) We are now going to study more general vector-valued functions of one real variable.

So the velocity is perpendicular to the radius vector, and hence parallel to the tangent vector of the circle at \(\vr(t)\text{.}\) The speed given by Lemma 1.6.13 is exactly the speed we found above, just before we started applying Lemma 1.6.13 .

The first task is to explain the meaning of the derivative of a vector-valued function and to show how to compute it. We begin with the definition of the derivative—now with a vector perspective: We begin with the definition of the derivative—now with a vector perspective:
