Q3)(20 pts) A test platform to study potential-kinetic energy transformation is being constructed. Platform consists of 2 Bezier Surfaces shaped by C1(t) and C2(t) Bezier Curves. C1(t) is a 5th degree Bezier Curve and shown in the figure. A Cubic Bezier Curve C2(t), that follows C1(t) is designed to be the second curve. The surface is designed such that C1(t) and C2(t) have tangencial (G1) continuity between them, the second line of C2(t)'s control polygon is on x+3=2Y line, Last line of C2(t) Bezier Polygon is parallel to x=-Y line. The last control point of C2(t) is P3=(6,0,0).
Answer the questions below with respect to this explanation.
a)(2pts) Identify the control points of the curve, C2(t)
C2(t):P0:
P1 :
P2 :
P3 :
Units are in meters.
Only C2(t) must be drawn in a grid paper with 1:100 scale.
Each square in grid is 5mm5mm
b)(6 pts) Write the polynomial form of the curve, C2(t)
