Problem

A complex number zz is represented by the point PP in an Argand diagram.

Given that

z2i=z3\begin{align*} |z - 2\mathrm{i}| =\,& |z - 3| \end{align*}

(a) sketch the locus of PP. You do not need to find the coordinates of any intercepts.

(2)

The transformation TT from the zz-plane to the ww-plane is given by

w=izz2iz2i\begin{align*} w =\,& \frac{\mathrm{i}z}{z - 2\mathrm{i}} \qquad z \neq 2\mathrm{i} \end{align*}

Given that TT maps z2i=z3|z - 2\mathrm{i}| = |z - 3| to a circle CC in the ww-plane,

(b) find the equation of CC, giving your answer in the form

w(p+qi)=r\begin{align*} |w - (p + q\mathrm{i})| =\,& r \end{align*}

where pp, qq and rr are real numbers to be determined.

解答

(a)

思路

展开

z2i=z3|z-2\mathrm{i}|=|z-3| 表示点 PP2i2\mathrm{i}33 的距离相等,所以轨迹是连接 (0,2)(0,2)(3,0)(3,0) 线段的垂直平分线。

The equation

z2i=z3\begin{align*} |z-2\mathrm{i}|=|z-3| \end{align*}

means that PP is equidistant from the points representing 2i2\mathrm{i} and 33.

So the locus is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining

(0,2)and(3,0).\begin{align*} (0,2)\quad\text{and}\quad (3,0). \end{align*}

The sketch should be a straight line with positive gradient, not passing through the origin, lying through quadrants I, III and IV.

zzww 表示,再直接代入原来的模长关系。这样可以避免先求直线方程再代入,整体更短。

答题过程

展开

Given

w=izz2i.\begin{align*} w=\frac{\mathrm{i}z}{z-2\mathrm{i}}. \end{align*}

Rearrange:

w(z2i)=izwz2iw=izz(wi)=2iwz=2iwwi.\begin{align*} w(z-2\mathrm{i})=&\,\mathrm{i}z\\[2mm] wz-2\mathrm{i}w=&\,\mathrm{i}z\\[2mm] z(w-\mathrm{i})=&\,2\mathrm{i}w\\[2mm] z=&\,\frac{2\mathrm{i}w}{w-\mathrm{i}}. \end{align*}

The original locus is

z2i=z3.\begin{align*} |z-2\mathrm{i}|=|z-3|. \end{align*}

Substitute z=2iwwiz=\dfrac{2\mathrm{i}w}{w-\mathrm{i}}:

2iwwi2i=2iwwi3.\begin{align*} \left|\frac{2\mathrm{i}w}{w-\mathrm{i}}-2\mathrm{i}\right| =&\,\left|\frac{2\mathrm{i}w}{w-\mathrm{i}}-3\right|. \end{align*}

Since wiw\neq \mathrm{i}, multiply both sides by wi|w-\mathrm{i}|:

2iw2i(wi)=2iw3(wi)2=(2i3)w+3i.\begin{align*} |2\mathrm{i}w-2\mathrm{i}(w-\mathrm{i})| =&\,|2\mathrm{i}w-3(w-\mathrm{i})|\\[2mm] |-2|=&\,|(2\mathrm{i}-3)w+3\mathrm{i}|. \end{align*}

So

2=(2i3)w+3i=2i3w+3i2i3.\begin{align*} 2=&\,|(2\mathrm{i}-3)w+3\mathrm{i}|\\[2mm] =&\,|2\mathrm{i}-3| \left|w+\frac{3\mathrm{i}}{2\mathrm{i}-3}\right|. \end{align*}

Now

2i3=13.\begin{align*} |2\mathrm{i}-3|=\sqrt{13}. \end{align*}

Also,

3i2i3=3i(32i)(2i3)(32i)=9i6i213=69i13.\begin{align*} \frac{3\mathrm{i}}{2\mathrm{i}-3} =&\,\frac{3\mathrm{i}(-3-2\mathrm{i})}{(2\mathrm{i}-3)(-3-2\mathrm{i})}\\[2mm] =&\,\frac{-9\mathrm{i}-6\mathrm{i}^2}{13}\\[2mm] =&\,\frac{6-9\mathrm{i}}{13}. \end{align*}

Therefore

2=13w+613913i.\begin{align*} 2=&\,\sqrt{13}\left|w+\frac{6}{13}-\frac{9}{13}\mathrm{i}\right|. \end{align*}

Hence

w(613+913i)=213=21313.\begin{align*} \left|w-\left(-\frac{6}{13}+\frac{9}{13}\mathrm{i}\right)\right| =&\,\frac{2}{\sqrt{13}}\\[2mm] =&\,\frac{2\sqrt{13}}{13}. \end{align*}

So

w(613+913i)=21313.\begin{align*} \boxed{ \left|w-\left(-\frac{6}{13}+\frac{9}{13}\mathrm{i}\right)\right| =\frac{2\sqrt{13}}{13} }. \end{align*}
