Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around evaluating a double integral with specified bounds. Participants express difficulty in starting the problem, with one user suggesting a change in the order of integration as a potential solution. The integral in question is set between the limits of 0 to 2 for x and x^2 to 4 for y. There is a call for clarification on the bounds to facilitate understanding. The conversation highlights the challenges of visualizing the region of integration and finding an effective method to solve the integral.

double integrals!

Homework Statement



sketch the region of integration then evaluate the double integral



Homework Equations



^{2}_{0}\int^{4}_{x^2}\intxey2dydx


3. The Attempt at a Solution

I can't even see how to start this problem. I've tried integration by parts but got no where! can some one please give me a direction?

Try changing the order of integration, though I couldn't read what your bounds were =[.
 

Thread 'Distance between a Clock's hands when the distance is increasing most rapidly'

Question: A clock's minute hand has length 4 and its hour hand has length 3. What is the distance between the tips at the moment when it is increasing most rapidly?(Putnam Exam Question) Answer: Making assumption that both the hands moves at constant angular velocities, the answer is ## \sqrt{7} .## But don't you think this assumption is somewhat doubtful and wrong?
