From the definition of the decay constant for nuclear decay, derive the exponential decay equation.

By definition, dn/dt = - λ N ,
If you separate the variables which contain N and t, and then integrate w.r.t N and w.r.t t you get,
lnN = -λt + C (1),
...

Explain the role of the Loop of Henle in the absorption of water from the glomerular filtrate

After the filtrate in the nephron undergoes Selective Reabsorption in the Proximal Convoluted Tubule, it then travels to the Loop of Henle. The Loop of Henle is a ‘U’ shaped structure found in the Medulla...

Let f(x)=xln(x)-x. Find f'(x). Hence or otherwise, evaluate the integral of ln(x^3) between 1 and e.

We use the product rule with u=x and v=ln(x) (so u'=1 andv'=1/x) to differentiate xln(x) to ln(x)+1, and -x just differentiates to -1, hence we have. f'(x)=ln(x).
Now note that ln(x^3)=3ln(x) using p...
