1.) The problem is: Find the arc length of f(x)= x^3/3-1/(4x) from x=1 to 2 2.) Relevant formulas: ds = √(1+(dy/dx)) abs(L) = ∫ds 3.) My work so far: f'(x)= x^2+1/(4x^2) abs(L) = ∫(from 1 to 2) √(1+(x^2+1/(4x^2))^2 dx = ∫(from 1 to 2) √(1+(x^4+1/2+1/(16x^4)) dx = ∫(from 1...

So I tried out a small, fun experiment of putting my cell phone in the microwave (not turning it on, of course) to see if the WIFI Hotspot capabilities were hindered by the Faraday cage that insulates the microwaves. I had heard that microwave cages will hinder If not completely block 802.11...
