• TITLE: A Different Brachistochrone Problem with Counterintuitive Results

  AUTHORS: Pirooz Mohazzabi

  KEYWORDS: Brachistochrone, Cycloid, Bead, Sliding, Minimum, Time, Counterintuitive

  JOURNAL NAME: Journal of Applied Mathematics and Physics, Vol.12 No.4, April 30, 2024

  ABSTRACT: A problem similar to the famous brachistochrone problem is examined in which, instead of a smooth curve, the path consists of two straight-line sections, one slant and one horizontal. The condition for minimum sliding time is investigated, producing results that are both counterintuitive and interesting.
