    Multivariable Integration / Nonlinear Differentials

    Homework Statement dv/dt = (k+v2)/h Homework Equations k is a constant, and v and h are variables where h is independent of v but v is dependent of h (v is a function of h and t). The Attempt at a Solution dv/(k+v^2) = dt/h. The problem I have is with dealing with the right side...

    Solving a Linear Differential Equation with a Square Root Term

    Homework Statement dv/dt = -327/3500 – (41/105)(square root of 6)(v2). Solve for v. Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution dv/[327/3500 + (41/105)(square root of 6)(v2)] = -dt Then integrate both sides. 1/(square root of (327/3500)) * arctan(v * square root of...

    Graduate Help Solve Math Term Paper Integration Error!

    The following is from my investigation of a problem for my math term paper. An object is given a certain linear velocity, v(0), has acceleration opposing its velocity, and the object comes to a stop at time = tf due to the acceleration. d(tf) = integral from 0 to tf of v(t)dt = integral from 0...

    Undergrad Electricity Confusion: True or False?

    PLEASE help me by telling me if the following is true (below, when I say going with the flow I mean following the direction of electric field, and when I saw going against flow I mean going in opposite direction of electric field) Positive charges go with the flow Negative charges go against...

    Best Non-Calculus General Physics Book

    I am currently taking AP Physics B, and my teacher doesn't really teach the class. I really want to learn in depth physics that doesn't include calculus (even though I am taking AP Calculus AB right now). I have the Fundamentals of Physics 8th edition and University Physics with Modern Science...

    Undergrad Calculating Surface Area and Volume of 6-Way PVC Pipe - Quick and Easy Guide

    The question was supposed to be my 20 page term paper for math research. One last question, would finding the volume and surface area of this be difficult, and what field of mathematics is involved? Calculus still? http://www.puzzleworld.org/puzzleworld/puz/hexagonal_prism.htm
