Thank you for not creating cycloid content!

explain why the red line is not the same as the line in the original content, if the circles are moving the same way
Tricky, right?
It's because there is "friction" and the part of the circle touching the line can't move relative to it, and so you get that "cusp" shape.
Maybe someone else can give a better explanation, I haven't had any coffee yet.
oh right, i see it now. in the original post, the line goes through the ball! thanks!
Thank you for creating sinusoidal content! I'll eat seagull meat and birch bark pie!
