The infinite series C and S are defined C = a*cos(x) + a^2*cos(2x) + a^3*cos(3x) + ..., and S = a*sin(x) + a^2*sin(2x) + a^3*sin(3x) + ... where a is a real number and |a| < 1. By considering C+iS, show that S = a*sin(x)/(1 - 2a*cos(x) + a^2), and find C.

C + iS = (acos(x) + a^2cos(2x) + a^3cos(3x) + ...) + i( asin(x) + a^2sin(2x) + a^3sin(3x) + ...)

= a(cos(x) + isin(x)) + a^2(cos(2x) + isin(2x)) + a^3(cos(3x) + ...

What is the mechanism for the nucleophilic substitution of a halogenoalkane?

A halogenoalkane is a saturated hydrocarbon chain with a halogen atom (F, Cl, Br or I) attached to a carbon instead of a hydrogen. Halogens have a greater electronegativity than carbon. This means they dr...

How do you intergrate a function?

Increase the powers of all variables by one and then divide them by this number. For example, given 3x^3 + 5x^-0.5 - 8 , this would give 3/4x^4 + 10x^0.5 - 8x
