    How can the integral of a complex function be simplified?

    Homework Statement \int sin e^{-x}+e^x cos e^{-x}\,dx Find the integral above Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution I tried substituting u=e^{-x}, but i get \int \frac{sin u}{u}+\frac{cos u}{u^2} \,du, which is non-integrable function.

    Permutation and combination question

    When I arrange the six statistics questions, there will be 7 spaces to slot in the 5 pure maths questions. Since there is the restriction that pure math question must be followed by exactly one statistics question, there are three ways to arrange 5 questions in these 7 free spaces. If there is...

    DC Motor Question: Change in Magnetic Flux

    The diagram provided in the question is quite similar to the one I have attached, except that the coil is substituted with a rectangular armature with wire around it. I find the solution weird because normally I would calculate change in magnetic flux by finding change in the magnetic field...
