I am having a heck of a hard time with this integral... I have tried everything what I can think of:
\int \! \left( {e^{x}}+{e^{-x}} \right) ^{-1}{dx}
I tried integration by parts... I ended up getting \left( {e^{x}} \right) ^{-1} even thought the right answer, according to Maple and my...
Hello everyone I understand how to solve exact equations, but what happens when they arnt' exact? I'm confused on what I'm suppose to do! Does anyone feel like explaning hte process to me, if given an integrating factor/> or give me a website? Here is my problem:
Check that the equation...
Hey everyone,
I need to find an integrating factor of the form x^n*y^m, to solve a differential equation i have... however i do not know the process to solve for an integration of this form.. .any help??
Thanks

Hi
I have the following problem:
To calculate the fine structure energy corrections for the hydrogen atom, one has to calculate the expectation value for (R,R/r^m), where R is the solution of the radial part of the schroedinger equation (i.e. essentially associated laguerre polynomial) and...
Could someone please point me forwards again.
By integrating the following equation twice...
\frac{1}{x^2}\frac{d}{dy}(x^2 \frac{dx}{dy}) = 0
I tried integrating by parts but came to a sticky end.
many thanks

I'm trying to perform the following integral
\pi \int\limits_0^\pi {e^{2x} } \left( {\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{2}\cos 2x} \right)dx
I split the integral and temporarely ignore the Pi so that I get
\frac{1}{2}\int {e^{2x} dx} - \frac{1}{2}\int {e^{2x} \cdot \cos } \left( {2x} \right)dx...
for the equation, (a+1)ydx+(b+1)xdy=0,
i am wondering how to get (x^a)(y^b) as an integrating factor~
the following is my work:
(1/F)(dF/dx)=(a-b)/[(b+1)x]
=> F=cx^[(a-b)/(b+1)]
why doesn't that method work?
for the question, siny+cosydy=0, i want to find an integrating factor.
my work:
(1/F)(dF/dx)=(1/cosy)(cosy+siny)=1+tany
=>lny=x +xtany +c`
=> y =ce^(x+xtany)
however, the question wants the integrating factor to be e^x...
why?
Howdy, I've read this forum for some time, however this is my first post. I am attempting to solve this ODE. I am looking to find an integrating factor, then solve. I have attached the link to the problem set if my input here is ambiguous. Number 4d. Thank you kindly for any help you might...
Ok, so we have
\int_{0}^{1}\left(\sin{2x}*\cos{2x}\right)dx
Using the double angle forumla we change the integrand
(1/2)\int_{0}^{1}\left(2*\sin{2x}*\cos{2x}\right)dx
which converts to
(1/2)\int_{0}^{1}\left(\sin{4x}\right)dx
This is where I run into trouble... I'm trying to...
Hello, i am now in the process of integrating m(d^2x/dt^2)=-kx which i know i will have to do twice in order to obtain the general solution to simple harmonic motion, x= Acos(wt+c) c=phi
but I'm just having problems with the second derivative of acceleration (d^2*x/dt^2) when it comes to...
While integrating the function f(x) = \frac{1}{x ^ 2}, I came across something I don't understand:
\int \frac{1}{x ^ 2}dx = - \frac{1}{x} + C
Let f(x) := \frac{1}{x ^ 2}
f(x) > 0, \forall x \in \mathbb{R}
\int_{-1}^{1}f(x)dx = -1 - (-(-1)) = -2:confused:
Why this happened? :confused: It's...
hi felles.
I am trying to find what is the volume of the y=\frac{a}{x^2}+b is when it is rotated in y-axis.
The values of a is 1 and b is -1.
max hight is 3 and min is 0.
I was trying to integrade and ended up with V=\frac{-Pi}{y^2+2Y+1} where y is 3.
Is this right?
I did a U...
\int \frac{\cos^5(\theta)}{\sin^4(\theta)} d\theta
Anyone mind sparing a little hint for this tricky devil? I can't even get started on it. \cot^4(\theta)\cos(\theta) dosn't seem any better either.
I've tried using identities but I end up with nastier ones?
Q. By finding a suitable integrating factor, solve the following equation:
\left( {x + y^3 } \right)y' = y (treat y as the independent variable).
Answer: Exact equation is y^{ - 1} \left( {\frac{{dx}}{{dy}}} \right) - xy^{ - 2} = y leading to x = y\left( {k + \frac{{y^2 }}{2}} \right)...
Hello everybody
I'm very much interested in the thread about "Feynmans Calculus" (having read the books, too). The problem is I don't understand quite some of the stuff, because I don't have the necessary fundamental knowledge.
So I thought to confront you with some lower level questions...
I am going to be gone all day tomorrow at a conference track meet and am unable to ask my teacher how to do integrating factors and differential operators. I leave tomorrow at 9:15 am and was hoping to have some examples to take with me to study.
If someone could help me walk through a these...
Hi guys, I need a bit of help with this. I've got an op-amp and the standard formula:
V_{out} = -\frac{1}{RC}\int V_{in} dt
And i need to integrate a square wave from it in order to determine some capacitor/resistor values to get an output amplitude of 5V and freq 200Hz (triangle wave)...
Help, I'm trying to find the hypervolume of a hypersphere and I'm stuck on this:
V^4= 2(\frac{4\pi} {3}) \int_0^r (\sqrt{r^2-x^2}) ^3 dx
I don't know how to do the integration, and I can't expand the (\sqrt{r^2-x^2}) ^3
The answer should be \frac{\pi ^2}{2}r^4
Please help, thanks
I have the following Integral

Integrating dx/dv^2 ??
i'm trying to figure out an example in my physics book but i don't quite understand the maths.

how does this happen??

i noticed that if i integrate
2 \pi r
i get
\int 2 \pi r dr=\pi r^2
i figured its because the area of a circle can be seen as the sum of circumference's of circles with radius 0 to radius r
i was thinking if the half volume of a ball also be seen as made from the sum of areas of circules...

\int cos(u^2)du
Is it doable at a Calc One level? I tried by parts and got to
\int cos(u^2)du = ucos(u^2) + 2\int(u^2sin(u^2)du
but I am having a brain fart as to hwo to advance, trying again by parts.
i'm having trouble rewriting this integral:\int\frac{e^x}{e^{2x} + 1} so that it will be in the arctan formula: should i use long divison here? if it were not for the e^x in the numerator i'd be fine.
Q. Motivate the Integrating factor strategy for U ( "Mew" ) of y
I know how to prove it for "Mew" of x but how to do for "mew" of y
Maybe something like this.
Mdx (x.y) + Ndy ( x, y ) = 0
Assume this is differentiable so let us multiply by "mew" of x on both sides to make it...
Hi there, (I hope this post is in the right forum)

I have this population differential equation dP/dt=k1(P)-k2(P) where k1 and k2 are proportionality constants. I need to integrate and analyze where k1>k2, k1=k2, and k1<k2. Trouble is, I don't think I'm integrating this right. I get P=e^(t+C)(k1-k2). I know this should be easy but I don't think...
Hey. I am pretty confident i have solve this problem. I just solve the integral of the given wave function, with the given limits... However, I am having a difficult time integrating it. The sqrt(2/L) can be brought outside of the integral, but what can i with the sin function?
The wave...
We just started this and I mostly understand it except when it comes to using A, B, C, etc substitution. What I mean is this, here is an exampe.
(6x^2+x+1)/(x^2+1)(x-1) = (Ax+B)/(x^2+1) + (C)/(x-1)
You then multiply by denominators so you end up with (Ax+B)*(x-1) + (C)*(x^2+1). You...
I need help with two questions.
Find a divergent improper integral whose value is neither infinity nor -infinity.
2. Find the volume of an ellipsoid (a^2*x^2) + (b^2*8y^2) + (c^2*z^2) = a^2*b^2*c^2 using integration.
I need to know how to integrate this function:
sin(sqrt(x))
I did this:
u = sqrt(x)
du/dx = 1/(2sqrt(x))
S(sin(sqrt(x))dx) = S(sin(u)*dx*du/dx/(2sqrt(x)) = S(Sin(u)/u du)
But then I got stuck: integration by parts won't work, trig substitution is out...
The one thing I did come up...
In calculus, my work has recently involved integrating and differentiating the numer e, of which I am very unsure of how to do. I set up some examples for myself to try to figure out, could anyone tell me if they are correct? Please correct me if I am wrong, or tell me where I have made a...
I am able to proove to myself, through generalised substitution, that the integral of f'(x)/f(x) is lnf(x)+c, but where do the modulus signs come from? ie - The accepted integral is ln|f(x)|+c, not lnf(x)+c
Thanks in advance. :smile:
whats the integral of tan^2(u)(sec(u))du?
i was trying to integrate
(x^2)/sqrt(x^2+1)dx, and came into that. it turns out pretty messy though, is there a clean way to do it?
Yeah, this questions may be a little elementary for some, but I don't seem to have any sources which would be able to tell me how do i integrate a function 1/x. Any help would be great.
