If n is an integer such that n>1 and f(x)=(sin(n*x))^n, what is f'(x)?

Let us denote sin(nx) = u(x), where u is a function of x. The equation is now therefore f(x) =(u(x))^n.

For simplicity, we will write that as f(x) = u^n

By the chain rule, w...

If hydrogen was burnt in a chamber full of oxygen, what would be the effect on the chamber pressure and why?

The equation for the reaction is; 2H2 +O2 = 2H2O

From the equation it can be seen that 2 moles of hydrogen reacts with 1 mole of oxygen to produce 2 moles...

What is [(x+1)/(3x^(2)-3)] - [1/(3x+1)] in its simplest form?

First simplify the expression; 3x^(2)-3 to get;

[(x+1)/3(x^(2)-1)] - [1/(3x+1)] 

Using the fact that x^(2)-1 is the difference of two squares, we can simplify it to;

x = 2t + 5, y = 3 + 4/t. a) Find dy/dx at (9.5) and b) find y in terms of x.

This is a standard parametric equations question, it is important that the methodology behind answering this question is understood.

For part a) we simply use the chain rule (dy/dx = dy/d...

A student is measuring the acceleration due to gravity, g. They drop a piece of card from rest, from a vertical height of 0.75m above a light gate. The light gate measures the card's speed as it passes to be 3.84 m/s. Calculate an estimate for g.

This question is simply a matter of finding and applying the correct equation of motion.

First, draw a diagram - even if the situation in the questions seems really simple, it's always us...
