Question
![The problem involves finding the first and second derivatives, the dot product, and the cross product of a vector function \( \mathbf{r}(t) \). The given vector function is:
\[ \mathbf{r}(t) = \frac{5}{2} t^2 \mathbf{i} - 5t \mathbf{j} + \frac{2}{3} t^3 \mathbf{k} \]
Tasks:
(a) Find \( \mathbf{r}'(t) \).
(b) Find \( \mathbf{r}''(t) \).
(c) Compute the dot product \( \mathbf{r}'(t) \cdot \mathbf{r}''(t) \).
(d) Compute the cross product \( \mathbf{r}'(t) \times \mathbf{r}''(t) \).
For each task, blank answer boxes are provided, presumably for solving and entering the solutions.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F71add9db-1d7d-4717-844d-ec4f44236527%2Fa1bbf16f-10ed-4f69-b021-5cf6e099c7a7%2F1goqz1e_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
