How do I solve the integral (1/x^5)(1/(e^(hc/xkt)-1) dx?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My mind just exploded

OpenStudy (anonymous):

looks like you have to use integration by parts maybe?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@junwagh i was just thinking that...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've never seen an integral like that, what class is this for?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's what I figured. It's actually Physics, but my math is failing me.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits_{0}^{\inf.} 1/\lambda ^{5} 1/(\exp(hc/\lambda kT) - 1)\] if that helps at all. Probably not.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Er, and those two are multiplied, not one over the other...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey Im assuming the h k s etc.. are constants?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cause i think i can solve it if so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah. It's being integrated over the \[\lambda\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol nvm this its gonna be monstrous the way im doing it. Must be missing something.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wow this is hard
