Question
![**Problem Statement for Calculus Course:**
*Given a Vector Function, Find the Unit Tangent Vector*
Let \(\vec{r}(t) = \left\langle -3t^5 - 1, 2e^{3t}, 4\sin(4t) \right\rangle\)
Find the unit tangent vector \(\vec{T}(t)\) at the point \(t = 0\).
\[
\vec{T}(0) = \left< \quad, \quad, \quad \right>
\]
**Instructions:**
- To find the unit tangent vector \(\vec{T}(t)\), you first need the derivative of \(\vec{r}(t)\), which is \(\vec{r}'(t)\).
- Then, evaluate \(\vec{r}'(t)\) at \(t = 0\).
- Finally, find the magnitude of \(\vec{r}'(0)\) and use it to normalize the vector to get \(\vec{T}(0)\).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F16864198-3c29-44d0-a974-0ddc23a60123%2F3d64300a-2fd4-40c2-92ee-344e2d130e2f%2F995pntq_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
