Given that the binomial expansion of (1+kx)^n begins 1+8x+16x^2+... a) find k and n b) for what x is this expansion valid?

a) We compare the expansion given to the standard binomial expansion (remembering the powers of k).(1+kx)n=1+n(kx)+(n(n-1)/2)(kx)2+...As this is true for all x (for which the expansi...

Given that y=(sin4x)(sec3x), use the product rule to find dy/dx

First, recall the Product rule: f(x)=g(x)*h(x), f'(x)=h(x)*g'(x)+h'(x)*g(x)This reveals the next step, to find the derivatives of our two subsidiary functions(g and h) d/dx * (sin4x) = 4cos(4x) , and d/dx...

One of the decays of potassium (A=40, Z=19) results in an excited argon atom with excess energy of 1.50 Mev. In order to be stable, it emits a gamma photon. What frequency and wavelength has this gamma photon?

The nucleus of the atoms are usually in excited states after performing a beta decay. By emitting a photon, the nucleus recover stability. The emitted photon has the same energy as the excess energy of th...
