Locus on a list of points

Needs Answer

So I have a curve created using a locus here which works as expected:https://www.geogebra.org/classic/kp4v5qvq

But now I want to create a sequence of these curves rotated like this:

I had the arcs set up correctly as a sequence. Then I tried to enter the following:

Sequence(Locus(Element(l5,i),Element(l2,i)),i,1,length(l5))

But it doesn't work and gives an error. Is there a way to make this work?

Any help will really be appreciated

Ok, I figured it out by linking the list of moving points with the slider

Sequence(Locus(Element(l5,i),b),i,1,Length(l5))

But it turns out that this method is way too resource intensive and lags even with moderate quantity.

Is there a way to use the cardioid equation to produce the same results, but more efficiently?

Is there a parametric equation for the curve?
