A propeller designed around this shape rotates around the vertical axis and provides extremely fast changes in thrust direction.
A propeller designed around this shape rotates around the vertical axis and provides extremely fast changes in thrust direction. That propeller is named after Voith and Schneider. Its catacaustic divides it in two, and it is equal to its evolute. Depending on how one is created, it can be curtate or prolate. When a pendulum is forced to follow a path of this shape, it will reach the lowest point of its swing in the same amount of time no matter where it is initially placed, and it is the path a bead on a wire would take to fall from one point to another at the fastest speed. For 10 points name this curve which solves the tautochrone and brachistochrone problems and is the shape a point on the edge of a rolling circle traces out.
