    Differentiating with respect to t implicitly

    a particle moves along the curve xy=10, x=2 and dy/dt=3, what is the value of dx/dt? i tried product rule and got x*y*dy/dt + y*x*dx/dt = 0 and the answer that i get doesn't appear on the multiple choice answers a)-5/2 b)-6/5 c) 0 d) 4/5 e) 6/5 i don't know what I am...

    Finding zero of function problem

    Homework Statement the function f(x)=tan(3^x) has one zero in the interval [0,1.4]. The derivative at this point is The Attempt at a Solution f'(x)= sec^2(3^x)*x3^(x-1) and i really can't seem to get a zero from that because i really don't know where to start and if I am...

    Why does the heavier sled have momentum √2 times the lighter sled?

    [b]1. The one sled has a mass of 2m and the other sled has a mass of m show that sled one with mass 2m has a momentum of root2 compared to the sled with mass m. The only formulas that i could think to use were p=mv and sigmaF=dp/dt and i can't seem to find a way to relate them to get an...

    How Do You Calculate the Higher Temperature in a Chemical Kinetics Problem?

    [b]1. A certain reaction has an activation energy of 54.0 kJ/mol. As the temperature is increased from 22degrees celsius to a higher temperature, the rate constant increases by a factor of 7.00. Calculate the higher temperature. [b]2. ln(k)=-Ea/RT + ln(A) [b]3. i don't think that i...
