We have two circles. One small(C1) that is inside a bigger one (C2). C1 has a radius R1 and C2 has a radius R2. C1 is internally tangened to C2. On the perimeter of C1 lies a point (V). You are asked to find the coordinates of V(x,y) while C1 is moving alongside the perimeter of C2 without slipping.
Tip: Assume that the starting angle is at 0 degrees and that V is located at (-R1,0) at that angle.
ALSO KEEP IN MIND THAT: 'C1 MUST BE SMALLER THAN C2'.
GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
