    Integrating $\int \frac{x^2 - 1}{x^4 + 1}dx$ - Help Needed

    could you use u-substition to find the answer too?

    Lab writeup, resonance & speed of sound

    ok I'm definitely having trouble with this lab due tomorrow. We did a lab in class where you get an adjustable tube and use different tuning forks. With the different frequencies of the forks we adjusted the tubes until it reached resonance? (loudess point) Alright so we got a bunch of numbers...

    how could the two spheres have equal size & density? I was just confused, wouldn't the solid one have to be smaller because.. it's smaller?

    Understanding the Product Rule in Calculus: Solving for y = x ln x

    hmm I think i might just be being stupid. 1/x is the known derivative of lnx.. but i guess with that other x there.. x lnx, you would need to use product rule like that guy said?

    Understanding the Product Rule in Calculus: Solving for y = x ln x

    Hmm I'm not great at this but, y = x lnx I was gunna say.. that whenever you take the derivative of logs.. 1/function * derivative of that function so that'd give you y = (1/xlnx)(1/x) but by using the product rule... y = 1(xlnx) + x(1/x)) Hmm, definitely don't listen to me, i don't...
