At time t = 0 a particle leaves the origin and moves along the x-axis. At time t seconds, the velocity of P is v m/s in the positive x direction, where v=4t^2–13t+2. How far does it travel between the times t1 and t2 at which it is at rest?

First, you have to work out the values of t1 and t2 at which the particle is at rest. This is done by solving the quadratic equation for v, producing values for t of 13/8 +- sqrt(137): 0.1619s and 3.088s. To...

Given that, dy/dx = 6x^2 - 3x + 4, and y = 14 when x = 2, express y in terms of x.

dy/dx = 6x 2 - 3x + 4 To retrieve the original function y from dy/dx you have to integrate the derivative with respect to x. y = ∫(dy/dx)dxy = ∫(6x 2 - 3x + 4)dx To integrate, the power is raised by one and ...
