Calculus

OpenStudy (gorv):

it seems like a function of sin or cos

OpenStudy (anonymous):

detail explanation please, I don't get this problem at all:"(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

really??

OpenStudy (amistre64):

what do you know of sntiderivatives, or integration?

OpenStudy (gorv):

x"(t)=7cost

OpenStudy (gorv):

can u integrate it ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're given \(a(t) = 7\cos(t)\) with the conditions that it starts at rest (i.e. \(v(0)=0\)) and that it's initial position is 9 (i.e. \(f(0)=9\)). To find velocity, integrate \(a(t)\) to get \(\displaystyle v(t) = \int 7\cos t\,dt = 7\sin t+C\). Apply the condition \(v(0) = 0\) to get \(C=0\) (verify). Hence \(\boxed{v(t) = 7\sin t\). Do the same thing for finding \(f(t)=\displaystyle\int v(t)\,dt\) and apply the initial condition to find the integration constant.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can derive them easily now, integrate some i get wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(\boxed{7\sin t}\) *

OpenStudy (gorv):

\[v(t)=\int\limits x"(t)dt\]

OpenStudy (gorv):

after it again integrate v(t)

OpenStudy (gorv):

\[x(t)=\int\limits v(t) *dt\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

since you're given intial conditions, you may use definite integral also : \[\large v(t) - v(0) = \int\limits_{0}^ta(t) ~dt\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then on the top part you initially only use the second derivative?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry I am still analyzing the steps

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay hold on i kinda get it...

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large v = \int a\) you need to know that upfront to work this problem

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Oh it was already mentioned in the start of question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes in the first sentence, but I don't get how after you hence & do the same thing? You get what im asking?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How Cristopher explained it, I get it and know how to do it, but I dont' know what my answer will be, like when to stop

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There is usually videos of an example i see before solving the problem, but this one doesn't have any examples

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Christopher already gave you an expression for velocity function. \[\large v(t) = 7\sin t + C\] You just need to plugin the initial condition to find the value of constant C

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

the initial condition comes from the fact the body is at rest to start with

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

v(0) = 0 is your initial condition

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay give me a second, oh thats why it explains it with particle!! and its zero then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i get why on that part now

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

good, so whats your final velocity function ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

v(0)=7sin(0)+C

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

thats the equation for solving C

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

v(0)=7sin(0)+C = 0

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

solve C and plug it in velocity function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

& its position is x = 9.? I don't need that yet?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

7sin(0)+C = 0 7*0 + C = 0 C = 0 so the velocity function would be : \[v(t) = 7\sin( t) \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

v'(t)=7t

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats what i got, for the final not v(t) 7 sin t

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

v'(t) represents acceleration and you're given a = 7cos(t) so what do u mean by v'(t) = 7t ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

and what happened to sin's and cos's :O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahhhh idk what i did.... i thought we wouldn't include them for the final, answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:(

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

hmm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it is at rest at -7?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm going to submit it now, because its due already, but i would like to keep working on the problem to practice it, I won't know if i get it right though because webassign closes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that fine? Because I'm sure it will be on my next exam

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

wait

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

whats ur answer for v(t) and f(t) in part a ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't have anything for f(t) i have a 90% so far so i should be good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-7 is for part C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know for f(t) we factor at the end from V(t)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

I see why you're rushing :) christopher already gave u an answer for v(t) : \[v(t) = 7\sin (t)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i have that :)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you haven't noticed it because you're just rushing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just have one blank so i should be good

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

simply integrate that to get f(t)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I saw the answer from christopher, but didn;t get it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay i submitted it, my answer for v(t) was right, my other one was - 7cos(T)+C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but it was wrong so i think i did something wrong, i overall got an 94%, but what was f(t) then?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

thats a good try, you need to find the value of C and plug it in back for f(t) also

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh shoot thats true! like the previous one

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes but you don't want 100%, so..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i do lol

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you're so happy just by getting 90 that you want to submit the homework without even giving a good try for the last q

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just studied for my ochem exam and forgot my calc hoemwork:/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I didn't submit it, it submits at 12:59 lol

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Ohkiee

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plus i'm doing fairly good on exams:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

are these really exams or homework ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

homework, but those are my past exams

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you should aim for 100 in calc

OpenStudy (anonymous):

look let me show you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The date of my exam was Oct 31st lol , not Nov 5th, we can't post any exams on open study!!! @ganeshie8 :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea, we should aim for 100's in all the classes!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8 Thank you for all your help! I need to look at more videos
