Homework Statement
Integrate the following equation for average energy from -infinity to infinity
[tex]\int(c*x^4)*(e^(-c*x^4)/KT)dx[/tex]
Homework Equations
c, K, T are constants
[tex]\int(e^(-c*x^4/KT))[/tex] = (KT/c)^(1/4)*(2[tex]\Gamma[/tex](5/4))
The Attempt at a Solution
I tried using integration by parts [tex]\intu dv[/tex] = uv - [tex]\intv du[/tex] but either way i do (with u as the exponential term and dv = cx^4 dx or the other way around), i can't seem to get the answer. Can anyone help me out?
Thanks!
