Problem Statement
Let be the parameterized curve for a given positive number and ,
C: \left\{\begin{array}{ll} x \equal{} 2r(t \minus{} \sin t\cos t) & \\
y \equal{} 2r\sin ^ 2 t & \end{array} \right.
When the point moves on the curve ,
(1) Find the magnitude of acceleralation of the point at time .
(2) Find the length of the locus by which the point sweeps for .
(3) Find the volume of the solid by rotation of the region bounded by the curve and the -axis about the -axis.
