The volume of liquid in a container is given by v=(3h^2+4)^(3/2)-8, find dV/dh when h = 0.6

Chain rule: dV/dh=9h(3h^2+4)^(1/2)
sub in h=0.6 , dV/dh = 12.17

What is the difference between differentiation and integration, and why do we need Calculus at all?

We need calculus to find out the properties complex curves that we cannot find with simple arithmetic as we would with linear graphs. Differentiation allows us to calculate the gradient of a curve at a sp...

The equation (t – 1)x^2 + 4x + (t – 5) = 0, where t is a constant has no real roots. Show that t satisfies t2–6t+1>0

This is a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx +c, where (t-1)=a 4=b . (t-5)=0 Therefore if there are no real roots, you get that b^2-4ac<0. (using the quadratic formula)

First plug in valu...

Question 3 on the OCR MEI C3 June 2015 paper. Find the exact value of Integral x^3 ln x dx between 1 and 2.

This is a good candidate for integration by parts because it is a product of two functions – ln(x) and x^3, and x^3 is easy to integrate. The definition for integration by parts is: integral(u dv/dx) d...
