    What Are the Steps for Using Change of Variables to Find Bounded Regions?

    i vaguely remembered a similar example the prof did, i missed how he had chosen u and v, which resulted in my confusion thank you so much for the help!

    First Order Homogeneous Equation

    Homework Statement (4y4-9x2y2-144)dx - (5xy3)dy = 0 Homework Equations substitute y = xv dy = dx v + dv x The Attempt at a Solution after substituting i got (4x4v4-9v2x4-14x4)dx - (5v3x4)dx.v + dv.x = (4v4-9v2-14)dx - 5v3(dx.v + dv.x) = 0 = dx(4v4-9v2-14-5v4)+dv(-5v3x)= 0...

    Differential Equations - Initial Value Problem

    Homework Statement Suppose that the initial value problem y' = 7(x^2) + (5y^2) − 6, y(0)=−2 has a solution in an interval about x=0. Find y'(0) = Find y''(0) = Find y'''(0) = Homework Equations get it into standard form: dy/dt + p(t)y = g(t) find integrating factor =...

    Interference - Finding distance between slits

    Homework Statement A laser is shone through a set of slits and onto a screen. I have a Δy vs. L graph plotted, where Δy is the spacing between successive nodes, and L is the distance from the slits to the screen. I'm supposed to find the spacing between the center of the slits. The value of λ...

    Finding the force due to uniform charged rod

    ooh I think I'm starting to see it: dq = \lambda dy and \lambda = \frac{Q}{2L} and then \lambda can be brought out of the integral and that's where the 2L comes from! Thank you so much! This was bugging me for quite a while.

    Finding the force due to uniform charged rod

    Due to symmetry, I multiplied by cosine, which I think is D/r

    Finding the force due to uniform charged rod

    Homework Statement A charge Q = 4.35 ×10−4 C is distributed uniformly along a rod of length 2L, extending from y = -21.1 cm to y = +21.1 cm, as shown in the diagram 'on your assignment above. A charge q = 6.05 ×10−6 C, and the same sign as Q, is placed at (D,0), where D = 74.5 cm. Use...
