    Work done against gravity on a right circular cone

    Homework Statement A right circular cone has vertex down and is 10 feet tall with base radius 5 feet. The cone is filled with a fluid having varying density. The density varies linearly with distance to the top. Here "varies linearly" means the quantities are related by an equation of at most...

    Linear Approximation of Angles

    Yes, I should have written the function as s instead of f. Θ = 34˚ = 17∏/90 ∆Θ = 2˚ = ∏/90 ∆s = s'(Θ)∆Θ = s'(17∏/90)(∏/90) ∆s = [1250/32 * cos(17∏/90)] * (∏/90) ∆s = 1.13 18.1 ft + 1.13 ft = 19.23 ft

    Linear Approximation of Angles

    Homework Statement A player located 18.1 ft from a basket launches a successful jump shot from a height of 10 ft (level with the rim of the basket), at an angle Θ = 34 degrees and initial velocity of v = 25 ft/s.A. Show that the distance s of the shot changes by approximately 0.255∆Θ ft if the...

    Calculus Continuous Function Problem

    And so it does indeed :P 30(sin(At)/t) + Bt = -10[log(t)/log(5^(1/3))] + 76 30(sin(3∏/30*5)/5) + B(5) = -10[log(5)/log(5^(1/3))] + 76 30(1/5) + 5B = 46 6 + 5B = 46 B = 8 Thank you so much for your help. =D

    Calculus Continuous Function Problem

    When t = 5 30(sin(At)/t) + Bt = -10[log(t)/log(5^(1/3))] + 76 30(sin(0.314*5)/5) + B(5) = -10[log(5)/log(5^(1/3))] + 76 0.164 + 5B = 46 5B = 45.84 B = 9.168

    Calculus Continuous Function Problem

    Now, I'm assuming that the equation is now: When t = 0 30(sin(At)/t) + Bt = 3∏ 30 lim t->0 (sin(At)/t) + B(0) = 3∏ 30A + 0 = 3∏ A = 3∏/30

    Calculus Continuous Function Problem

    I think I have it: lim t-> 0 sin(At)/t 1. Multiply by A to get: lim t->0 Asin(At)/At 2. Put the A out front: A lim t-> 0 sin(At)/At 3. lim t-> 0 sin(At)/At = 1 and then A * 1 = A So the lim t->0 sin(At)/t = A?

    Calculus Continuous Function Problem

    I know that if it was just sin(t)/t that the limit would be 1 (for this equation A would have to be 1 to make that work).
