Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around finding a solution manual for Thomas' Calculus, with participants expressing various opinions on the appropriateness of seeking such resources. One participant specifically describes a calculus problem related to the melting of an ice cube, involving rates of change and volume calculations.

Discussion Character

  • Mixed

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Participants question the ethics of seeking a solution manual, with some suggesting that the original poster should rely on their own efforts. The original poster describes a specific calculus problem involving the relationship between the volume and surface area of a melting ice cube, and raises concerns about the appropriateness of using integration for a problem from a derivatives chapter.

Discussion Status

The conversation includes a mix of ethical considerations regarding resource acquisition and technical discussions about the calculus problem. Some participants offer insights into the mathematical approach, while the original poster seeks clarification on the methods used and the validity of their findings.

Contextual Notes

The original poster mentions constraints such as difficulty in obtaining the manual due to location and payment methods, which may influence their approach to solving the calculus problem.

i am searching that book thomas calculus solution manual. is there anybody who can tell me from where can i doenload. thanks
 
Physics news on Phys.org
you really should do your homework...
 
it is not for hw

i would like to check my answers and look some solutions that i couldn't solved
 
In your head. If you work hard enough
 
thanks

very very thanks for your useful tips.
 
Well, how about this, then:
BUY the damn manual instead of acting like a thief trying to filch it from the net somewhere.

Shame on you!
 
thanks for your useful tips. i am not a short of person that will make his hw's with such a illegal way.ok it could be stay.
 
i couldn't find it in my country and i have not a credit card to buy it fron net
 
ok i changed my opininon. could you help m with only one problem. i haven't solve it. that is in the chapter 3.additional problem 28 ;
i would try to write a summary of the problem : assume an ice cube retains its cubical shape as it melts. if we call edge lenth s its vlume is v=s^3 and the surface area is = 6*s^2. we also assume that the cube's volume decreases at a rate that is proportional to its surface area. in math terms : dv/dt=-k(6*s^2) ; assume that the cube lost 1/4 of its volume during the first hour and that the volume is Vo at t=0. how long will it take the ice cube to melt...

i tried to solve that with integrating(as t goes to 0 V goes to 3V/4) and tried to find k but then k is going to be a strange value.also the chapter is about derivative applications i can not solve it with integral. then what should i do please help me with this problem...

Okay, first of all:
Here, it is smart to express the surface S in terms of the volume V:
[tex]S=6V^{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]
Thus, the differential equation for the rate of change of the volume is:
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=-6kV^{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]
This is a separable equation:
[tex]\frac{dV}{V^{\frac{2}{3}}}=-6kdt[/tex]
or, integrating both sides from t=0 and and t=T:
[tex]3(V(T)^{\frac{1}{3}}-V(0)^{\frac{1}{3}})=-6kT[/tex]
or simply, for arbitrary T:
[tex]V(T)=(V(0)^{\frac{1}{3}}-2kT)^{3}[/tex]
Now you should be able to do the last steps on your own!

yes i know first put V(t)=3v/4 t=1 find k than put v(t)=0 put k and find t. this what i must do isn't it?. but this is a problem from derivative chapter. but we found the answer with integration is it true?
 
  • #12
one more question: i have found the answer t=1/(1-(3/4)^1/3))) is it true?
 
  • #13
i will solve your problems for $50 apiece.

Come on, guys.
