When the bicycle moves along a straight line, the point on the wheel moves forward in a straight line with the bicycle, and moves in a circle with the axle. If we look carefully, we will find that this point draws a beautiful arc in front of us.

In fact, long ago, Cycloidal motor BMS People have a strong interest in studying the track of the points on the wheels of the carriage moving in a straight line. Some people think it is an arc that goes round and round, while others think it is a parabola. What do you think?

Cycloid: When a circle rolls along a fixed straight line without sliding, the track of a fixed point around the moving circle is called a cycloid. A fixed straight line is called a baseline, Cycloidal oil motor BM1 The dynamic circumference is called the parent circle, and the fixed point is called the swing point.

Exploring various properties of cycloid is one of the focuses of interest of mathematicians in the 17th century. French mathematician Mason gave an earlier definition of cycloid in history.
