For Velocity and Net change... Anyone understand?
@zachdykstra plz tell the question:)
Find the displacement over the given interval v(t) = t^3 - 5t^2 + 6t with the given area of [0 \le t \le 2pie]
displacement is the integration of velocity
explain in simpler terms??
the thing that you are looking to find is the area under the function from 0 to 2pi
... antiderivative perhaps?
velocity is simply the rate at which distance changes with time so displacement is integration of velocity equation and integeration simply means area under curve :)
so do you guys usually just use desmos or CAD calculators to calculate it?
pencil and paper .. no eraser
\[\int x^n=\frac 1{n+1} x^{n+1}\]
yeah I understand quite simply the antiderivative and substitution and all of the equations but the graphing and finding the area of is what is kicking my butt
theres no need to graph it if you understand how to take an antiderivative/ integral
\[\int_{a}^{b}f(x)~dx=F(b)-F(a)\]
so if it tells me to find the displacement of t^3 - 5t^2 + 6t with the given interval [0 less than or equal to T which is less than or equal to 2pi]
@amistre64 good going :)
a = 0, b = 2pi, f(x) = f(t) = t^3 - 5t^2 + 6t \[\int_{0}^{2\pi}~t^3 - 5t^2 + 6t~dt\] you do know how to integrate a power right?
thnx :)
yeah i understand all of that you just wrote im just lost after that in finding the answer
ok, what do we get for the integration? lets see if you have that done correctly then
so I take the anti-derivative or derivative from that?
yes
take the "antiderivative" that is
okay so it becomes n+1/n+1 or whatever but i have no idea how to type that all special
just type it in the best you can, im smart enough to be able to see what it is you might be trying to accomplish :) the antiderivative of: \(t^3 - 5t^2 + 6t\) is?
t^4/4 - 5t^3/3 + 3t^2
perfect.. now to find out the rest, we need to subtract that from itself (t^4/4 - 5t^3/3 + 3t^2) - (t^4/4 - 5t^3/3 + 3t^2) and evaluate it at t = 2pi on the left, and t=0 on the right ((2pi)^4/4 - 5(2pi)^3/3 + 3(2pi)^2) - (0^4/4 - 5(0)^3/3 + 3(0)^2) 16pi^4/4 - 40pi^3/3 + 6pi^2 - 0
simplify as desired
