Why do the trig addition formulae work?

Try differentiating:sin(x)cos(z-x)+cos(x)sin(z-x)with respect to x and for constant z, then simply the derivative you deduce, then integrate throughout the simplified equation. See what happens!

Do the SUVAT equations work for acceleration that changes with time?

It depends on how much it changes. For instance, if some object does undergo as good as makes no difference constant acceleration, then the SUVAT equations apply quite well to the circumstances at play. If t...

Why does 'x' need to be in radians to differentiate 'sin x'?

There are two definitions of the sine and cosine functions that anyone who uses contemporary maths, and I do mean anyone, uses silently or otherwise. The first is as follows:'Rotate the point (1,0) in Euclid...

Differentiate y= (6x^2 - 5)^(3/2) with respect to x

Simplify the equation to y=u 3/2 where u = 6x 2 -5Use the chain ruledy/dx = dy/du x du/dxdy/du = (3/2)u 1/2 du/dx = 12x - 0Therefore dy/dx = (3/2)u 1/2 x 12xBut u = 6x 2 -5 so substitute that into the deriva...
