The curve A (y = x3 – x2 + x -1) is perpendicular to the straight-line B at the point P (5, 2). If A and B intersect at P, what is the equation of B? Also, find any stationary points of the curve A.

Firstly find the gradient of A, through differentiation: dy/dy = 3x2 – 2x + 1. To find the gradient at P, substitute the x value of the P coordinate into this equation: dy/dx = 3(2)2...

(M1) What direction does friction act in? What are the friction equations both generally and in limiting equilibrium? What does it mean for a system to be in equilibrium?

Friction always acts in the opposite direction to motion (or the potential motion) and Friction (Fr) acts as follows: In every case: Fr ≤ 𝜇R (where 𝜇 is the coefficient of friction and R is the reaction f...

What is the factor theorem?

The factor theorem helps us to find factors of polynomial equations, by substituting in number values for x to see whether the equation equals zero. For any polynomial P(x), the factor theorem would state...
