Homework Statement



If f and g are uniformly continuous on X, give an example showing f*g may not be uniformly continuous.



The Attempt at a Solution



i think if the functions are unbounded the product will not uniformly continuous. Is there a specific example of this function..?

Consider some simple examples first!
Choose X = \mathbb{R}, and maybe let f(x) = x, for any x \in \mathbb{R}.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
