A tank is filled with water up to the height H0. At the bottom of the tank, there is a tap which is opened at t=0. How does the height of liquid change with time?(Hint: dH/dt is proportional to -H)

This is a typical C4 differential equation question. The same algorithm could be used for a lot of other problems.

First of all, from the hint we have that dH/dt = -kH (1).

We need to separa...

Find the coordinate of the turning point of the curve y = x^2 - 10x + 7, by completing the square

First, we need to complete the square. We take the first part of the equation ignoring the constant ( + 7).  

y = x2 - 10x , we want to change the form of this equation from  x2

How do you integrate ln(x) with respect to x?

Rewrite ln(x) as 1ln(x) then integrate by parts.  The formula for integration by parts is  uv' = uv -  vu', here use u = ln(x) and v' = 1.  By differentiating u we get u' = 1/x, an...

Differentiate the function f(x) = sin(x)/(x^2 +1) , giving your answer in the form of a single fraction. Is x=0 a stationary point of this curve?

The key concepts to apply in this question will be the product and chain rules, namely: if f(x)=g(x)h(h), then f'(x)=g(x)h'(x) + g'(x)h(x), and if h(x)=u(v(x)), then h'(x)=u'(v(x))v'(x). Equivalently, you...
