Parallel arrows along a curve with tikz












2















I want to draw parallel arrows (for example 10 arrows) from a line to a curve. It is not good idea that dividing the line and curve to 10 parts and then join them to each other because of mathematical reason the resulting arrows are not parallel.



What I have done is the following.



documentclass{standalone}
usepackage{tikz}
usetikzlibrary{arrows,positioning}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}[allow upside down]

draw (0,0) circle (3.5);
draw (0,3.5) arc (90:-90:1.75 and 3.5) foreach p in {0,5,...,100} {
node[inner sep=0cm,above,pos=p*0.01,
anchor=center,
minimum height=p*0.03cm,minimum width=(10+p)*0.3cm]
(N p){}
};

draw (0,3.5) --(0,-3.5) foreach p in {0,5,...,100} {
node[inner sep=0cm,above,pos=p*0.01,
anchor=center,
minimum height=p*0.03cm, minimum width=(10+p)*0.3cm]
(M p){a}
};

foreach p in {5,10,15,...,95} {
draw[-latex,blue] (N p.center) -| (0,0);
}
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}

I do not really know if I understand what you want but a slight modification of your code produces "parallel arrows from a line to a curve".



documentclass[tikz,border=3.14mm]{standalone}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}[allow upside down]

draw (0,0) circle (3.5);
draw (0,3.5) arc (90:-90:1.75 and 3.5) foreach p in {0,5,...,100} {
node[inner sep=0cm,above,pos=p*0.01,
anchor=center,
minimum height=p*0.03cm,minimum width=(10+p)*0.3cm]
(N p){}
};
draw (0,3.5) -- (0,-3.5);

foreach p in {5,10,15,...,95} {
draw[latex-,blue] (N p.center) -- (0,0 |- N p.center);
}
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}
