Solve the differential equation: e^(2y) * (dy/dx) + tan(x) = 0, given that y = 0 when x = 0. Give your answer in the form y = f(x).

This is a question taken from a core 4 paper and is a typical example of a differential equation question. The first thing to notice about this equation is that it is "separable", meaning we can re...

Calculate the length of a 120m (as measured by the astronaut) spaceship travelling at 0.85c as measured by a stationary observer

The length of the spaceship of 120m was measured at rest relative to the spaceship so we will take that as the proper length, dennoted L proper We first calculate the Lorentz factor: Ɣ = 1/sqrt(1-(v/c) 2 ) Ɣ...

Differentiate The Following function

Find dy/dx where y = (x 2 +7) 1/2 => 1/2(x 2 +7) -1/2 * d/dx(x 2 +7) By the chain rule => 1/2(x 2 +7) -1/2 * 2x => x(x 2 +7) -1/2 Remember that x 1/2 = sqrt(x) and x -1 = 1/x => x/sqrt(x 2 +7)
