Find the unit binormal vector for $\mathbf{\vec{r}\left(t\right)} = \left\langle \cos{\left(t \right)}, \sqrt{3} t, \sin{\left(t \right)}\right\rangle$.

### Solution

The unit binormal vector is the cross product of the unit tangent vector and the unit normal vector.

The unit tangent vector is $\mathbf{\vec{T}\left(t\right)} = \left\langle - \frac{\sin{\left(t \right)}}{2}, \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}, \frac{\cos{\left(t \right)}}{2}\right\rangle$ (for steps, see unit tangent vector calculator).

The unit normal vector is $\mathbf{\vec{N}\left(t\right)} = \left\langle - \cos{\left(t \right)}, 0, - \sin{\left(t \right)}\right\rangle$ (for steps, see unit normal vector calculator).

The unit binormal vector is $\mathbf{\vec{B}\left(t\right)} = \mathbf{\vec{T}\left(t\right)}\times \mathbf{\vec{N}\left(t\right)} = \left\langle - \frac{\sqrt{3} \sin{\left(t \right)}}{2}, - \frac{1}{2}, \frac{\sqrt{3} \cos{\left(t \right)}}{2}\right\rangle$ (for steps, see cross product calculator).

The unit binormal vector is $\mathbf{\vec{B}\left(t\right)} = \left\langle - \frac{\sqrt{3} \sin{\left(t \right)}}{2}, - \frac{1}{2}, \frac{\sqrt{3} \cos{\left(t \right)}}{2}\right\rangle.$A
