What is the gradient of this curve y=5x^3+6x^2+7x+8 at point x=3?

When differentiating an equation (y) you find the equation of the gradient, called dy/dx. The rule for differentiating a power of x is given below:y=x^n dy/dx= nx^(n-1)Applying this rule to this question you...

Two pendulums consist of a massless rigid rod of equal length attached to a small sphere of equal radius, with one sphere hollow for one pendulum and the other solid. Each pendulum undergoes damped SHM. Which pendulum has the largest time period?

This question requires a qualitative answer seeing as we do not have an expression for the time period of a pendulum undergoing damped SHM. This is what the examiners will be expecting.There are a few differ...

A curve has an equation y=3x-2x^2-x^3. Find the x-coordinate(s) of the stationary point(s) of the curve.

The very first step in solving this problem is understanding that a stationary point is where the derivative of the curve, dy/dx (or in Newton’s notation y’), is equal to zero. This is because at stationary ...
