In summary: I think I may have solved it and I want to make sureIn summary, the homework equation is F(x) = sin(g(x)) where g'(x) is the derivative of g(x). The derivative is found by taking the derivative of the function with respect to x and then differentiating it with respect to y.

Homework Statement


F(x) = sin ([tex]\int[/tex]0 to x sin ( [tex]\int[/tex] 0 to y sin^3(u) du) dy )

find F'(x)

The Attempt at a Solution



Is the answer

cos ([tex]\int[/tex]0 to x sin ( [tex]\int[/tex] 0 to y sin^3(u) du) dt ) sin( [tex]\int[/tex] 0 to x sin^3(u) du) dy ) sin^3(x)?

because when you differentiate the integral, the function you get becomes with respect to the boundary variable and so the last terms become with respect to x and I have to differentiate them as well?

([tex]\int[/tex]0 to x sin ( [tex]\int[/tex] 0 to y sin^3(u) du) dy ) this becomes sin ( tex]\int[/tex] 0 to x sin^3(u) du), then since the integral in the argument is with respect to x, I must differentiate that as well to get sin^3(x)

thanks

I doubt anyone can make sense of that. Use a little tex to make it readable. For example, you do an integral like this:

[tex] \int_{lower limit here}^{upper limit here} integrand\ dx [/itex]

To see what I did just click on it. You can copy and paste it and use it to post your question so we can read it.

thanks, I didn't know how to do that

anyway, I'm looking for the derivative of:

[tex]
F(x) = sin(\int_{0}^{x} sin(\int_{0}^{y} sin^3(u)\ du)\ dy ) [/tex] I'm pretty sure that it comes out to be: [tex]
F'(x) = [cos(\int_{0}^{x} sin(\int_{0}^{y} sin^3(u)\ du)\ dy ) \ dx] sin(\int_{0}^{x} sin^3(u)\ du) sin^3(x) [/tex]

But I'm not 100% clear about the steps. Why do I have to keep differentiating after I differentiate [tex] (\int_{0}^{x} sin(\int_{0}^{y} sin^3(u)\ du)\ dy ) [/tex] (from the chain rule)

Is it because when I differentiate the expression, [tex] sin(\int_{0}^{y} sin^3(u)\ du)\ dy ) [/tex], it is evaluated at x and so I must differentiate that expression? (since I am differentiating with respect to x)

thank you

You have an extra dx at the end of your F(x) that shouldn't be there.

Call

[tex]

g(x)= \int_{0}^{x} sin(\int_{0}^{y} sin^3(u)\ du)\ dy
[/tex]

so your F(x) = sin(g(x)) and F'(x) = cos(g(x)) g'(x) by the chain rule.

Now by the fundamental theorem of calculus to get g'(x) you simply write the integrand in g(x) with the dummy variable y replaced by x:

[tex]g'(x) = sin(\int_{0}^{x} sin^3(u)\ du)[/tex]

Put those together; I think it is a bit different than what you wrote. It's late and I'm a little sleepy so check it. :zzz:

thanks, I noticed the extra dx. I left it there by accident after copying and pasting the integral latex code

by the chain rule it should be F'(x) = cos(g(x) )g'(x), but how come the answer has sin^3(x) at the end? is it wrong? (I got this answer from someone's notes, refer to post #3)
thanks

FAQ: Easy Integration of Sinusoidal Functions with Multiple Integrals

What is "should be easy integration"?

"Should be easy integration" is a term used to describe the process of integrating two or more systems or technologies together in a way that is expected to be simple and straightforward.

Why is easy integration important?

Easy integration is important because it allows for seamless communication and cooperation between different systems, which can improve efficiency and productivity.

What factors contribute to easy integration?

There are several factors that can contribute to easy integration, including compatibility between systems, well-documented APIs, and clear communication and collaboration between the teams responsible for the integration.

What are some challenges that can make integration difficult?

Some challenges that can make integration difficult include incompatible technologies, lack of clear documentation, and communication barriers between teams.

How can scientists ensure easy integration in their research?

Scientists can ensure easy integration in their research by carefully considering the compatibility between different technologies and systems, thoroughly documenting their methods and procedures, and maintaining open communication with other scientists and researchers involved in the project.
