Given that y= x^(-3/2) + (1/2)x^4 + 2, Find: (a) the integral of y (b) the second differential of y

This is a typical question for a Core 1 paper. (a) integral of y = (-2)x^(-1/2) + 0.1x^5 + 2x +C Method: Increase the power of x by +1, divide the term through by the new power. (b) dy/dx = (-3/2)x^(-5/2)...

A ball with radius 10cm is filled with an ideal gas at pressure 2*(10)^5Pa and temperature 300K. The volume of the gas is changed at constant pressure so that the radius of the ball is reduced with 1cm. Find the amount of gas and the new temperature

In a question like this, you will be given that the molar gas constant is R = 8.31JK-1mol-1. However, committing this to memory will be helpful. We should use the ideal gas law: PV =...
