Describe and explain the vertical motion of a parachutist which jumps out of an aeroplane at time t=0 and then releases the parachute shortly after reaching terminal velocity at time t=T. (Assume air resistance is not negligible).

We need to understand both what this question is asking of us, and what the question tells us. We are asked to investigate the motion of the parachutist, therefore in this case we need to apply Newton’s Laws...

Show that the inequality x^4 < 8x^2 + 9 is satisfied for when -3 < x < 3 .

(x^2 - 9)(x^2 + 1) &lt; 0 solving the equation to get solutions to the equality (x^2 - 9)(x^2 + 1) = 0 : x = +/- 3 or x = +/- 1 now consider points either side of these x-intercepts... for x&gt;3: equality i...

Express cos(x) + (1/2)sin(x) in terms of a single resultant sinusoidal wave of the form Rsin(x+a)

cos(x) + (1/2)sin(x) : Rsin(x + a) = R{sin(x)cos(a) + cos(x)sin(a)} = (1/2)sin(x) + (1)cos(x) (comparing coeffs.) Therefore Rcos(a) = 1/2 and separately Rsin(a) = 1 So tan(a) = 2 and R^2 = 5/4. Answer: sqrt(...
