Oh really???
A polygon is continuously being converted to a circle by adding sides to it at a rate of \[\frac{dn}{dt}\]If the rate of increase in sides is proportional to \[1+n^2\] If we start with a triangle and time taken for a hexagon is 1.25seconds. Then, (i)Write the general solution of the differential equation of the problem. (ii)Find the constant of proportionality. (iii)What will be the value of n for a circle? (iv)How long(approx.) will it take to convert it to a circle?
dn/dt= k(1+n^2) dn/(1+n^2) = kdt integrate tan^-1( n) = k(t) use the limits so that another constant wont appear n from 3 to 6 and t from 0 to 1.25 sec first and second part solved no. of sides in circles can be considered as infinite so upper limit infinite tan^-1 infinite = pi/2 , lower limit 3 and time from 0 to t evaluate t third and fourth part solved
