Parabolic coordinates form an orthogonal system, which simplifies the representation of geometric shapes like parabolas and enables straightforward calculations for vector operators due to their identical scale factors.
The demo provides a visual proof that the two families of parabolas always intersect at a right angle. It also shows that the position vector is a direct line from the origin to any point in space, with its components defined by the coordinate system's conversion formulas.
