    How Do You Integrate (x + 3) / sqrt(x^2 + 4x - 5)?

    took me to a world of confusion :( sheesh what am I missing? also, can one use the standard integral with the second fraction and get arc cosh [(x+2)/3] ?

    How Do You Integrate (x + 3) / sqrt(x^2 + 4x - 5)?

    well before completing the square it seemed quite clear to me that letting u= x2+ 4x -5 would make 1/2 du = x+2. for solving the 1st fraction.. but looking at the completed square i assume i should be doing something else?

    How Do You Integrate (x + 3) / sqrt(x^2 + 4x - 5)?

    that gives me a denominator of (x+2)2 - 9 ... why do we do this? also: can I split the initial fraction up into 2 separate ones? IE. (x+2) and (+1) (both over same denominator) in this way I can use substitution for the 1st fraction right? PS. sorry about the duplicate post. Realized it was...

    Finding acceleration of an object on a horizontal surface

    Is this applied to the box at rest? in that case the applied force has to be greater than the max Static Friction for the box to have any acceleration.

    What is the speed of a gymnast's center of mass at the bottom of a swing?

    Hi farmguy youre using the right approach but you've left out information and made a calculation error: if E0=Ef ...Initial total mechanical energy = final tot mech enrgy then... remember that if u make final height 0, like u did, u have to make initial height 2m. From reading the...

    so simple :D dammit how do u know when to use these principles of conversation? its so confusing :( so by doing that i got v= -29,4 but i need angular speed. so VT = \omega r ? then i get -19,6 rad/s

    Not sure which formula to use for this problem

    190,44 devided by 4,6 = 19,6? must be something wrong with ure calculator mate :) The minusses both fall away

    Not sure which formula to use for this problem

    ure making a mistake somewhere -(13,8)^2 = + 2(-2,3)D - 190,44 = -4,6D ...now divide by (-4,6) to find D

    Not sure which formula to use for this problem

    V2 = V02+ 2aD -(13,8)2 = + 2(-2,3)D no need to square root just calculate

    Not sure which formula to use for this problem

    K so do u agree that this is what we have now: V2 = V02 + 2aD 0 = (13,8)2 + 2(-2,3)D now calculate D
