The velocity of a moving body is given by an equation v = 30 - 6t, where v - velocity in m/s, t - time in s. A) What is the acceleration a in m/s^2? B) Find the expression for the displacement s in terms of t given the initial displacement s(0)=10 m.

A) Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time; therefore, in order to calculate it we need to differentiate the given equation of velocity v with respect to time t: a = dv / dt = d( ...

Differentiate "sin(2x)"

Sinx differentiates to give cosx. We then multiply this by the differential of "2x." Which equals 2. Our answer therefore is "2cos(2x)."

Find the area between the curves y = x^2 and y = 4x - x^2.

First, we need to draw a diagram , to understand the question more clearly. y = x^2 is a common curve, but to sketch y = 4x - x^2, we should factorise it, to find where it inersects the x-axis. 4x - x^2 = x(...
