Let us reparametrize the curve
r(t)=e2tcos2ti+2j+e2tsin2tk
with respect to arc length measured from from the point where t=0 in the direction of increasing t. As in example 2 we see that the initial point (1,0,0) corresponds to t=0. To reparametrize the given curve we will first compute the derivative of r(t):
r(t)=(e2tcos2t)i+0+(e2tsin2t)k
=(2e2tcos2t+e2tsin(sin2t)2)i+(2e2tsin2t+e2t2cos2t)k
=[2e2tcos2t2e2tsin2t]i+[2e2tsin2t+2e2tcos2t]k
Its magnitude is
|r(t)|=(2e2tcos2t2e2tsin2t)2+(2e2tsin2t+2e2tcos2t)2
=(2e2t)2[(cos2tsin2t)2+(sin2t+cos2t)2]
=4e4t[cos22t2cos(2t)sin(2t)+sin2(2t)+sin2(2t)+2sin(2t)cos(2t)+cos2(2t)]
=4e4t[2cos2(2t)+2sin2(2t)]

To reparametrize the curve with respect to arc length measured from the point where t=0 in the direction of increasing t, we need to find a new parameterization α(s), where s represents the arc length.
The arc length of a curve in three-dimensional space is given by the integral of the magnitude of its velocity vector:
s=(dxdt)2+(dydt)2+(dzdt)2dt
In this case, we have the following parameterization:
𝐫(t)=e2tcos(2t)𝐢+2𝐣+e2tsin(2t)𝐤
Let's compute the derivatives of x(t), y(t), and z(t):
dxdt=ddt(e2tcos(2t))=2e2tcos(2t)2e2tsin(2t)
dydt=ddt(2)=0
dzdt=ddt(e2tsin(2t))=2e2tsin(2t)+2e2tcos(2t)
Now, let's calculate the magnitude of the velocity vector:
d𝐫dt=(dxdt)2+(dydt)2+(dzdt)2
=(2e2tcos(2t)2e2tsin(2t))2+0+(2e2tsin(2t)+2e2tcos(2t))2
Simplifying this expression will give us the integrand for the arc length integral.
d𝐫dt=(2e2tcos(2t)2e2tsin(2t))2+(2e2tsin(2t)+2e2tcos(2t))2
Expanding the squares and combining like terms:
=4e4tcos2(2t)8e4tcos(2t)sin(2t)+4e4tsin2(2t)+4e4tsin2(2t)+8e4tcos(2t)sin(2t)+4e4tcos2(2t)
=8e4t(cos2(2t)+sin2(2t))
=8e4t
Simplifying further:
=2e2t
Now we have the integrand for the arc length integral: 2e2t. We can proceed to integrate this with respect to t to find an expression for s in terms of t.
s=2e2tdt
Integrating 2e2t with respect to t gives:
s=e2t+C
where C is the constant of integration.
To determine the value of C, we need to evaluate s at the starting point t=0. From the original parameterization, we know that r(0)=e2(0)cos(0)𝐢+2𝐣+e2(0)sin(0)𝐤. Simplifying this expression, we find that r(0)=𝐢+2𝐣.
Substituting t=0 into the expression for s, we get:
s=e2(0)+C=1+C
Since s represents the arc length measured from the point where t=0, we can conclude that C must be zero. Thus, the expression for s in terms of t is:
s=e2t
Now, let's rewrite the original parameterization 𝐫(t) in terms of s:
𝐫(t)=e2tcos(2t)𝐢+2𝐣+e2tsin(2t)𝐤
Using the expression for s, we substitute t with ln(s):
𝐫(s)=e2ln(s)cos(2ln(s))𝐢+2𝐣+e2ln(s)sin(2ln(s))𝐤
Simplifying further:
𝐫(s)=s2cos(2ln(s))𝐢+2𝐣+s2sin(2ln(s))𝐤
Finally, we can write the reparametrized curve in terms of arc length s measured from the point where t=0:
𝐫(s)=s2cos(2ln(s))𝐢+2𝐣+s2sin(2ln(s))𝐤
This represents the reparametrization of the curve 𝐫(t) with respect to arc length measured from the point where t=0 in the direction of increasing t.
