Two particles travel along the space curves r1(t) = t, t2, t3 r2(t) = 1 + 2t, 1 + 6t, 1 + 14t . Find the points at which their paths intersect. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.)

Answer:

DNE

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that two particles travel along the space curves

[tex]r_1(t) = (t, t^2, t^3)\\ r_2(t) = (1 + 2t, 1 + 6t, 1 + 14t )[/tex]

To find the points of intersection:

At points of intersection both coordinates should be equal.

i.e. r1 =r2

Equate corresponding coordinates

[tex]t=1+2t\\t^2=1+6t\\t^3=1+14t[/tex]

I equation gives t =-1

Substitute in II equation to get [tex]t^2 = -5[/tex]

i.e. t cannot be real

Hence no point of intersection

DNE
