    Prove 4f is the Min. Distance Between Conjugate Points for Thin Lens

    It is still unclear to me where to go from here. What should I be differentiating with respects to? Regards, Adam

    Green's Theorem and Polar Coordinates for Circle Integration

    Homework Statement F = [−y^3, x^3], C the circle x^2 + y^2 = 25 Book gives answer as Pi*1875*1/2, I get Pi*1875 The Attempt at a Solution \int\int(3x^2 + 3y^2)dxdy \int\int(75(cos^2\vartheta + sin^2\vartheta))rdrd\vartheta 75\int[1/2 r^2]^{5}_{0}d\vartheta...

    Solving Sum of n+1^n/n^(n+1) - Diverges?

    Can I use this logic? Homework Statement I'm wondering if I can use this kind of logic to solve: \sum\frac{(n+1)^n}{n^{(n+1)}} Converges or diverges The Attempt at a Solution \frac{(n+1)^n}{n^{(n+1)}} \geq \frac{(n)^n}{n^{(n+1)}} And \frac{(n)^n}{n^{(n+1)}} = n ...

    Little help with differential equations

    Homework Statement \frac{dy}{dx} = \sqrt{xy^3} , y(0) = 4 The Attempt at a Solution So; \frac{dy}{dx} = x^{\frac{1}{2}}y^{\frac{3}{2}} \Rightarrow \int y^{-\frac{3}{2}}dy = \int x^{\frac{1}{2}}dx \Rightarrow -2y^{-\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{2}{3}x^{\frac{3}{2}} + C \Rightarrow...

    Solving General Arithmatic: A^{n}(B+C)^{n} = (AB+AC)^{n}

    Can I make this general statement? A^{n}(B+C)^{n} = (AB+AC)^{n} ?

    Vector Force Addition: Understanding Pressure and Force in Colliding Streams

    ^ if they are both hitting a third body then yes, the net resultant will be greater (approx 30). But I'm not sure how the fluid dynamics would work with the two streams hitting each other, for some reason i doubt there will be an increase in the waters velocity...

    Problem With fundamental theorum of Calculus

    Ah, I see what's going on... I was differentiating e^{cos^{2}x} which was giving me something else...

    Problem With fundamental theorum of Calculus

    hmm... I'm sorry but I still don't see it... The book then substitutes pi/2 into the F'(x) that I wrote above and ends it there... the final answer is -1...

    Problem With fundamental theorum of Calculus

    Homework Statement The question: F'(\pi/2) if F(X)= \int^{cosx}_{0} e^{t^{2}}The Attempt at a Solution I thought I thought F'(X) = f(t) = e^{t^{2}} replacing t with cos^{2}x But my book writes: F'(x) = (-sinx)e^{cos^{2}x}

    Simplification not so simple for me

    I plotted it through my Ti and two different curves resulted... edit: ah yes, the absolute would resolve it... (my algebra is so poor...)

    Simplification not so simple for me

    follow up question if I may... (I tried using this simplification to my demise) I have \sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^{2}}} I tried he trick and got \left(\frac{1}{x}\right)\sqrt{x^{2}+1} Yet it doesn't match... where did I go wrong? Also, I need to be worrying about the +- when I do these...
