Over the past weeks, vegetables were mysteriously missing and Mr Green decided to install an automated moving surveillance camera which moves along the boundary of the farmland in an anticlockwise direction along the curve C starting from point O and ending at point Q before moving in a clockwise direction along the curve C back to O. Ata particular instant ¢ seconds, the camera is located at a point P with parameter 8 on the curve C. You may assume that the camera is at 0 initially.
