Template:Sinusoidal spirals.svg In geometry, the sinusoidal spirals are a family of curves defined by the equation in polar coordinates

$r^n=a^n\cos (n\theta )$

where a is a nonzero constant and n is a rational number other than 0. With a rotation about the origin, this can also be written

$r^n=a^n\sin (n\theta ).$

The term "spiral" is a misnomer, because they are not actually spirals, and often have a flower-like shape. Many well known curves are sinusoidal spirals including:

• Line (n = −1)
• Circle (n = 1)
• Equilateral hyperbola (n = −2)
• Parabola (n = −1/2)
• Cardioid (n = 1/2)
• Lemniscate of Bernoulli (n = 2)
• Tschirnhausen cubic (n = −1/3)

The curves were first studied by Colin Maclaurin.

Equations

Differentiating

$r^n=a^n\cos (n\theta )$

and eliminating a produces a differential equation for r and θ:

$\frac{dr}{d\theta }\cos n\theta +r\sin n\theta =0$.

Then

$(\frac{dr}{ds},r\frac{d\theta }{ds})\cos n\theta \frac{ds}{d\theta }=(-r\sin n\theta ,r\cos n\theta )=r(-\sin n\theta ,\cos n\theta )$

which implies that the polar tangential angle is

$\psi =n\theta \pm \pi /2$

and so the tangential angle is

$\phi =(n+1)\theta \pm \pi /2$.

(The sign here is positive if r and cos nθ have the same sign and negative otherwise.)

The unit tangent vector,

$(\frac{dr}{ds},r\frac{d\theta }{ds})$,

has length one, so comparing the magnitude of the vectors on each side of the above equation gives

$\frac{ds}{d\theta }=r{\cos }^{-1}n\theta =a{\cos }^{-1+\frac{1}{n}}n\theta$.

In particular, the length of a single loop when $n>0$ is:

$a\underset{-\frac{\pi }{2n}}{\overset{\frac{\pi }{2n}}{\int }}{\cos }^{-1+\frac{1}{n}}n\theta d\theta$

The curvature is given by

$\frac{d\phi }{ds}=(n+1)\frac{d\theta }{ds}=\frac{n+1}{a}{\cos }^{1-\frac{1}{n}}n\theta$.

Properties

The inverse of a sinusoidal spiral with respect to a circle with center at the origin is another sinusoidal spiral whose value of n is the negative of the original curve's value of n. For example, the inverse of the lemniscate of Bernoulli is a hyperbola.

The isoptic, pedal and negative pedal of a sinusoidal spiral are different sinusoidal spirals.

One path of a particle moving according to a central force proportional to a power of r is a sinusoidal spiral.

When n is an integer, and n points are arranged regularly on a circle of radius a, then the set of points so that the geometric mean of the distances from the point to the n points is a sinusoidal spiral. In this case the sinusoidal spiral is a polynomial lemniscate

  I had like 17 domains hosted on single account, and never had any special troubles. If you are not happy with the service you will get your money back with in 45 days, that's guaranteed. But the Search Engine utility inside the Hostgator account furnished an instant score for my launched website. Fantastico is unable to install WordPress in a directory which already have any file i.e to install WordPress using Fantastico the destination directory must be empty and it should not have any previous installation files. When you share great information, others will take note. Once your hosting is purchased, you will need to setup your domain name to point to your hosting. Money Back: All accounts of Hostgator come with a 45 day money back guarantee. If you have any queries relating to where by and how to use Hostgator Discount Coupon, you can make contact with us at our site. If you are starting up a website or don't have too much website traffic coming your way, a shared plan is more than enough.

  Hostgator tutorials on how to install Wordpress need not be complicated, especially when you will be dealing with a web hosting service that is friendly for novice webmasters and a blogging platform that is as intuitive as riding a bike. After that you can get Hostgator to host your domain and use the wordpress to do the blogging. Once you start site flipping, trust me you will not be able to stop. I cut my webmaster teeth on Control Panel many years ago, but since had left for other hosting companies with more commercial (cough, cough) interfaces. If you don't like it, you can chalk it up to experience and go on. First, find a good starter template design. When I signed up, I did a search for current "HostGator codes" on the web, which enabled me to receive a one-word entry for a discount.
