DIFFERENTIAL_CALCULUS
Definition:
Let P be a given point on a given curve, and Q be any other point on it. Let
the normal at P and Q intersects at N. If N tends to definite position C as Q
tends P. Then C is called the centre of curvature of the curve at P.
The reciprocal of the distance CP is called the Curvature of the curve at P.
The circle with its centre at C and radius CP is called the circle of curvature of the
curve at P.
The distance CP is called the radius of curvature of the curve at P. The radius of
Curvature is usually denoted by ρ.
Note:
(dψ/ds) is the rate of bending of the curve.
Write to the curvature of the curve at point P.

CARTESIAN FORMULA FOR RADIUS OF CURVATURE
We know that (dy/dx) represents the slope of the tangent to the curve y = f
(x) at ( x,y ) .
Hence (dy/dx) = tan ψ.
Differentiate both sides write to ‘x’ we get
d²y / dx² = sec²ψ.(dψ/dx) ds/dψ = ρ
dψ/ds = 1/ρ
= sec²ψ.(dψ/ds).(ds/dx) dx/ds = cosψ
dy/ds = sinψ.
= sec²ψ.(1/ρ).(1/cosψ)
= sec³ψ / ρ
= (sec ψ)³ / ρ sec²ψ = 1+ tan²ψ
d²y / dx² = (1+ tan²ψ)3.1/2 secψ = (√1+tan² ψ)
____________
ρ sec ψ = (1+tan²ψ)½
Therefore, ρ = (1+ tan²ψ)3.1/2 tan ψ = dy / dx

1/(2√x) + 1/(2√y) . dy/dx = 0.
dy/dx = (- 1/(2√x)) . 2√y

Let K be a circle, with its centre at C having same curvature as the curve at the
point p.
This circle is called the circle of curvature of the given curve at P. And C is
known as centre of curvature . Any chord of the circle of curvature through the
point of contact P is called the chord of curvature of the given curve at P.

1) Find the centre of curvature of the curve y = 3x³ + 2x² - 3 at (0,- 3).
Soln:
Given y = 3x³ + 2x² - 3
(dy/dx) = 9x² + 4x
(dy/dx)(0,-3) = 0.
(d²y/dx²) = 18x + 4

ENVELOPE
Family of Curves:
Let us consider the equation y=mx+c. It represents a straight line with slope
m. By giving different values of m we get different straight lines. The straight lines
are called family of straight lines and m is known as the parameter of the family.
The family of Curves is represented by f(x,y,m)=0. Where m is a parameter.
The Curve given by f(x,y,m+sm) is termed as neighbouring curve.
Definition:

Substitute these values in the equation I,
[x (y³/ (x²+y²)3/2)] + [y (x³/ (x²+y²)3/2)] = a
xy³+yx³ = a(x²+y²)3/2

EVOLUTE AS THE ENVELOPE OF NORMALS
As the centre of curvature of a curve for a given point ‘P’ on it is the limiting
position of the intersection of the normal at P with the normal at any point
Q as Q implies P and evolute is the locus of the centre of curvature, the evolute
of a curve is the envelope of the normals of that curve.
1) Find the evolute of the parabola y² = 4ax as the envelope of normals.
Soln:
Equation of normals to the parabola is
y = mx -2am - am³ ------------------------------ I
m=parameter.
Differentiate the equation I w.r. to ‘m’
0 = x – 2a – 3m²a
i.e) 3m²a = x-2a
m² = x-2a /3a
m = (x-2a /3a)1/2 ------------------------------- II
Substitute the equation II in I we get,
y = [(x-2a) /3a]1/2 x - 2a[(x-2a) /3a]1/2 - a[(x-2a) /3a]3/2
y = [(x-2a) /3a]1/2 [x – 2a – a(x-2a) /3a]
y = [(x-2a) /3a]1/2 [(x-2a)(1- a/3a)]
y = [(x-2a) /3a]1/2 [(x-2a)²(4/9)]
y² = 4(x-2a)³ /27a
27ay² = 4(x-2a)³

2) Considering the evolute as the envelope of the normals, find the evolute
of the astroid x2/3 + y2/3 = a2/3 .
Soln:
The parametric equation of astroid is
x=acos³ θ, y=asin³ θ
(dx/dθ) = -3acos² θsin θ (dy/dθ) = 3asin² θcos θ
(dy/dx) = (3asin² θcos θ) / (-3acos² θsin θ) = -tan θ
Equation of the normal to the given asteroid is
y-y1 = (-1/m)(x-x1)
y-asin³ θ = (1/tan θ)(x-acos³ θ)
y-asin³ θ = (cos θ/sin θ)(x-acos³ θ)
(ysinθ - asin4 θ) = (xcos θ – acos4 θ)
(ysinθ - xcos θ) = a(sin4 θ - cos4 θ)
(ysinθ - xcos θ) = a(sin2 θ – cos2 θ)(sin² θ + cos² θ)
(ysinθ - xcos θ) = a(sin2 θ – cos2 θ)
(ysinθ - xcos θ) = -acos 2θ ------------------- I
Partially Differentiate the equation I w.r. to ‘θ’
(ycos θ + xsin θ) = 2asin 2θ ------------------ II
I X sin θ ====> ysin² θ – xcos θsi θ = -acos 2θsinθ
II X cos θ ===> ycos² θ + xcos θsinθ = 2asin 2θcosθ
y(sin² θ + cos² θ) = a(2sin2θcos θ – cos2θsi θ) ;( since, cos 2θ = cos² θ-sin² θ)
y = a[4sin θcos² θ - cos² θsin θ + sin³ θ]
y = a[3cos² θsinθ + sin³ θ] ------------------ V
Similarly,
x = a[cos³ θ + 3cosθsin² θ] ------------------ VI
(V+VI)==>
x+y = a(cosθ+sinθ)³ ----------------- VII

(V-VI)==>
x-y = a(cosθ – sinθ)³ ---------------- VIII
(x+y)2/3 + (x-y)2/3 = a2/3[(cosθ+sinθ)² + (cosθ – sinθ)²]
(x+y)2/3 + (x-y)2/3 = 2a2/3
3) Find the evolute of x²=4ay, considering it as the envelope of the normals.
Soln:
Any point on x²=4ay is (2at,at²)
Therefore, m=t
Result: 27ax² = 4(y-2a)³
4) Find the evolute of the parabola y²=4x considering it as the envelope of
its normals.
5) Considering the evolute as the envelope of normals find the evolute of
(x²/a² )+( y²/b² ) = 1
Soln:
The parametric equations are
x=acos θ y=bsin θ
(dx/dθ) = -asin θ (dy/dθ) = bcos θ
(dy/dx) = (bcos θ)/(-asin θ) = (-b/a)cot θ = m
The equation of the normal is
y-y1 = (-1/m)(x-x1)
y-bsin θ = (a/bcot θ)(x-acos θ)
= (asin θ/bcosθ)(x-acos θ)
(ybcos θ - b²sin θ cos θ) = (xasin θ - a²cos θsin θ)

(yb/sin θ)–b² = (ax/cos θ)-a²
(ax/cos θ) – (by/sin θ) = a²-b² ------------------------- I
Differentiate the equation I partially w.r. to ‘θ’
(-ax/cos² θ)(-sin θ) + (by/sin² θ)(cos θ) = 0
(ax/cos² θ)(sin θ) = (-by/sin² θ)(cos θ)
(sin³ θ/cos³ θ) = (-by/ ax)
tan θ = (-by/ ax)1/3 ___________
sin θ = [(-by)1/3 / √(ax)2/3+(by)2/3 ]
___________
cos θ = [(ax)1/3 / √(ax)2/3+(by)2/3 ]
__________ __________
I ==> { ax /[(ax)1/3 / √(ax)2/3+(by)2/3 ] } - { (by /[(-by)1/3 / √(ax)2/3+(by)2/3 ] }
= (a²-b²)
__________ __________
{[ax√(ax)2/3+(by)2/3] / (ax)1/3 } + {[by√(ax)2/3+(by)2/3] /(by)1/3 } = (a²-
b²)
__________
[√(ax)2/3+(by)2/3 ] [(ax /(ax)1/3) + (by /(by)1/3] = (a²-b²)
__________
[√(ax)2/3+(by)2/3 ] [(ax)2/3+(by)2/3] = (a²-b²)
[ (ax)2/3+(by)2/3 ]3/2 = (a²-b²)
Multiplying both sides by power 2/3
[(ax)2/3+(by)2/3] = (a²-b²)2/3
Which is the required equation.
