Homework Statement
problem form div curl grad and all that by h.m.schey
An object moves in xy-plane in such a way that its position vector r is given as a some function of "t" by
r= i acosωt+j bsinωt
show the object moves on the elliptical path
Homework Equations
(x/a)^2+(y/b)^2=1
The Attempt at a Solution
I tried the problem by changing cosωt=x and sinωt=y but i don't know how to proceed further, i don't know how to eliminate the unit vectors i, j. help me. Thank you
