    Is the Integral of ln(x)/(x+2) from 0 to 5 an Improper Integral?

    the question states: Is the integral, from 0 to 5, ln(x)/(x+2) dx, an improper integral? do not try to compute this integral. the answer: Yes, ln(x) undifined when x = 0. WHAT, why is this so, i thought an improper integral is when i take the upper/lower bound and replace it with...

    Uncertainties/error propogation

    i know the following: q = x+y+z ERROR IN q = sqrt((error in x^2)+(error in y^2)+(error in z^2)) but, what if the equation i have is q = x+y-z would it still be that same equation or would it be, ERROR IN q = sqrt((error in x^2)+(error in y^2)-(error in z^2))

    Two Masses, a Pulley, and an Inclined Plane

    alright but won't i need to have these two formulas into one, and put this over the m_1 formula?

    Two Masses, a Pulley, and an Inclined Plane

    for m_2 friction and tension are on x N normal is on y and m_2*g is between neg y and x axis

    Two Masses, a Pulley, and an Inclined Plane

    ok this just really confused me, N is equal to normal force right? and this just boggled me even more im not solveing for any numbers I am trying to find the equation using the variables which is even more confusing.

    Two Masses, a Pulley, and an Inclined Plane

    so wait would (m_1)ax= (m_1)*g and (m_1)ay=o ? or am i just really confused, if so then how do i intergrate m_2ay & m_2ax into an m_2a equation?

    Two Masses, a Pulley, and an Inclined Plane

    so frikin confused tried too many times, can anyone help me out? *image attached* Block 1, of mass m_1, is connected over an ideal (massless and frictionless) pulley to block 2, of mass m_2, as shown. Assume that the blocks accelerate as shown with an acceleration of magnitude a and that...

    Methane Cylinder Pressure Under Fire: 1080atm/1568psi

    Consider a high pressure gas cylinder of methane which exhibits a pressure of 200 atmosphers (absolute) at a temp. of 0*C in a small storage building. the building catches fire whcih causes the temp of the cylinder to rise to 1200*C. What would the pressure in the cylinder be then? express your...

    How Can Continuity be Ensured for Functions with Discontinuities at x=2?

    1) the given function is defined for x>0 except for x=2. Find the value to be assigned to f(2), if any, to guarantee that f is continuous at 2. f( x ) = sin(pi x) / (x-2) cant figure out how to change the equation so i can plug 2 in, i think I am loking right past it, tried multiplying...
