Given the equation 3x^2 + 4xy - y^2 + 12 = 0. Solve for dy/dx in terms of x and y.

Here the key is to remember to differentiate with both x and y with respect to x, where the differential of y is dy/dx. Consider the first term, 3x 2 : This differentiates to 6x. This is done by multiplying ...

An electron and a proton are in any electric field E=5x10^2 V/m. What is their speed 1.0 cm after being released?

F=Eq= 5x10^2 x 1.6x10^-19 = 8x10^-17 N Kinetic energy theory: deltaEc= Fxd =1/2mv^2 thus v= squareroot(2xFxd/m) v(proton) = squareroot(2x8x10^-17x1x10^-2/9.1x10^-31)=1.3x 10^6 m/s v(electron) = squareroot(2x...
