Ah, okay. The format change to (1+x)^(n) is making more sense now... I'm very rusty on infinite series so I'll have to take some time to review. From a brief look at my calc book it looks like it matches the binomial series. Will spend more time to see if it is right. Thanks! They just looked...

Homework Statement Question:[/B] ____________________________________________________________________________________ And the answer in the solution manual: Homework Equations Trig sub? a^2/x^2 = tan(θ) I'm thinking x>>a would affect this majorly and I'm not seeing how. The Attempt at a...

Oops, I left out a word there. Meant to say "solution steps." Usually in their app it shows the procedure of obtaining the solution. By "tidy" I meant that the end solution looked elegant and nothing like what I had on my paper at the time...

Wow, that was easy. I don't know how that didn't spring to mind; I really need to brush up on my math haha. Thank you!

Yes, x could be regarded as a constant, and no, not a part of a double integral. The physics parts of the problem were constants, so I just uploaded the core variables. IBP didn't work for me because when I used tabular integration because the derivative and integral of each part would continue...

Homework Statement Hello, I came across an unusual integral problem in my Physics book that I could not solve. The book simply skips the work and says to check the integral tables, but I wasn't able to find one that satisfied this problem. Homework Equations This is the problem...
