A curve is defined by the parametric equations x=(t-1)^3, y=3t-8/(t^2), t is not equal to zero. Find dy/dx in terms of t.

We see that x and y are both expressed in terms of t and as we are looking to define dy/dx in terms of t, the first step we take is to find the derivatives of x and y in terms of t as follows.x = (t-1)^3d...

Using Newton's law of universal gravitation, show that T^2 is proportional to r^3 (where T is the orbital period of a planet around a star, and r is the distance between them).

(Lets consider a simple planetary system composed of a planet orbiting a star. the gravitational force between the two is given by F=(GMm)/(r²). Assuming the planet also moves in a circular orb...
