    Beam deflection in a cantilever beam

    I need help finding the equation for a 25ft cantilever beam deflection where the beam has an even distributed load of 3000 lbs/ft and also has concentrated loads of 4000lbs 8ft from the clamped end and 5000lbs 18ft from the clamped end. A generic equation from a Roark table would do, but I am...

    Volume of Region A in First Quadrant Rotated Around y = -2

    thanks a lot, sorry about the difficulty you had while reading this. How do you right out the equations like you have it? I would like to be able to do that so my posts later on are more clear. Thanks again for your help.

    Approximating Nearby Points on a Nonlinear Curve

    Homework Statement To the right is the graph of 5x^3y-3xy^2+y^3=6. Verify that (1,2) is a point on the curve. There's a nearby point on the curve whose point is (1.07,u). What is the approx. value for u? There's a nearby point on the curve whose coordinates are (.98,v). What is the approx...

    Linear approximation and errors

    i think i finally got the answer to be 324.22pi by plugging in 40 to the above equation for C and then multipliing by delta x which in this case is 2

    Linear approximation and errors

    after solving for the volume when the radius is (21/pi) which is a +2cm error i got the answer 1251.1cm^3. when i solved for the volume when the radius was (19/pi) a -2cm error i got 926.6cm^3. last i solved for the actual measured raius which was 40 and found the radius to be (20/pi) when i...

    Finding the Value of C for Orthogonal Intersection of Two Curves

    Homework Statement Two curves intersect orthogonally when their tangent lines at each point of intersection are perpendicular. Suppose C is a positive number. The curves y=Cx^2 and y=(1/x^2) intersect twice. Find C so that the curves intersect orthogonally. For that value of C, sketch both...
