VECTOR FUNCTIONS
Later in this chapter, we are going to use
vector functions to describe the motion of
planets and other objects through space.
Here, we prepare the way by developing
the calculus of vector functions.
10.8
Derivatives and Integrals
of Vector Functions
In this section, we will learn how to:
Develop the calculus of vector functions.
VECTOR FUNCTIONS
The derivative r’ of a vector function
is defined in much the same way as for
real-valued functions.

Equation 1
The geometric significance
of this definition is shown as
follows.
DERIVATIVE
If the points P and Q have position
vectors r(t) and r(t + h), then represents
the vector r(t + h) – r(t).
This can therefore
be regarded as
a secant vector.
SECANT VECTOR
PQ
If h > 0, the scalar multiple (1/h)(r(t + h) – r(t))
has the same direction as r(t + h) – r(t).
As h → 0, it appears
that this vector
approaches a vector
that lies on the
tangent line.
DERIVATIVES
For this reason, the vector r’(t) is called
the tangent vector to the curve defined by r
at the point P,
provided:
r’(t) exists
r’(t) ≠ 0
TANGENT VECTOR
The tangent line to C at P is defined to be
the line through P parallel to the tangent
vector r’(t).
TANGENT LINE
We will also have occasion to consider
the unit tangent vector:

The following theorem gives us
a convenient method for computing
the derivative of a vector function r:
Just differentiate each component of r.
DERIVATIVES
If r(t) = ‹f(t), g(t), h(t)› = f(t) i + g(t) j + h(t) k,
where f, g, and h are differentiable functions,
then:
r’(t) = ‹f’(t), g’(t), h’(t)›
= f’(t) i + g’(t) j + h’(t) k

a. Find the derivative of
r(t) = (1 + t3) i + te–t j + sin 2t k
b. Find the unit tangent vector at the point
where t = 0.
DERIVATIVES Example 1
According to Theorem 2, we differentiate
each component of r:
r’(t) = 3t2 i + (1 – t)e–t j + 2 cos 2t k
DERIVATIVES Example 1 a
As r(0) = i and r’(0) = j + 2k, the unit tangent
vector at the point (1, 0, 0) is:

The curve is a plane curve.
Elimination of the parameter from
the equations , y = 2 – t gives:
y = 2 – x2, x ≥ 0
DERIVATIVES Example 2

The position vector r(1) = i + j starts
at the origin.
The tangent vector r’(1)
starts at the
corresponding point
(1, 1).
DERIVATIVES Example 2
Find parametric equations for the tangent line
to the helix with parametric equations
x = 2 cos t y = sin t z = t
at the point (0, 1, π/2).
DERIVATIVES Example 3
The vector equation of the helix is:
r(t) = ‹2 cos t, sin t, t›
Thus,
r’(t) = ‹–2 sin t, cos t, 1›
DERIVATIVES Example 3
The parameter value corresponding to
the point (0, 1, π/2) is t = π/2.
So, the tangent vector there is:
r’(π/2) = ‹–2, 0, 1›
DERIVATIVES Example 3
The tangent line is the line through
(0, 1, π/2) parallel to the vector ‹–2, 0, 1›.
So, by Equations 2 in Section 10.5,
its parametric equations are:

Example 3
The helix and the tangent line in
the Example 3 are shown.
DERIVATIVES
Just as for real-valued functions,
the second derivative of a vector function r
is the derivative of r’, that is, r” = (r’)’.
For instance, the second derivative
of the function in Example 3 is:
r”(t) =‹–2 cos t, sin t, 0›
SECOND DERIVATIVE
The next theorem shows that
the differentiation formulas for real-valued
functions have their counterparts for
vector-valued functions.

u and v are differentiable vector functions
c is a scalar
f is a real-valued function

By using Theorem 2 and the corresponding

The proof of Formula 4 follows.
The remaining are left as exercises.

Let
u(t) = ‹f1(t), f2(t), f3(t)›

Show that, if |r(t)| = c (a constant),
then r’(t) is orthogonal to r(t) for all t.
DIFFERENTIATION RULES Example 4
Since
r(t) ∙ r(t) = |r(t)|2 = c2
and c2 is a constant,
Formula 4 of Theorem 3 gives:

Thus,
r’(t) ∙ r(t) = 0
This says that r’(t) is orthogonal to r(t).
DIFFERENTIATION RULES
Geometrically, this result says:
If a curve lies on a sphere with center
the origin, then the tangent vector r’(t) is
always perpendicular to the position vector r(t).
DIFFERENTIATION RULES
The definite integral of a continuous vector
function r(t) can be defined in much the same
way as for real-valued functions—except that
the integral is a vector.
INTEGRALS
However, then, we can express
the integral of r in terms of the integrals
of its component functions f, g, and h
as follows.

We can extend the Fundamental Theorem
of Calculus to continuous vector functions:
Here, R is an antiderivative of r, that is, R’(t) = r(t).
We use the notation ∫ r(t) dt for indefinite integrals
(antiderivatives).
