Answer:

<em>The Volume is 5.018 cubic units</em>

Explanation:

<u>Volume Of A Solid Of Revolution</u>

Let f(x) be a continuous function defined in an interval [a,b], if we take the area enclosed by f(x) between x=a, x=b and revolve it around the x-axis, we get a solid whose volume can be computed as

\displaystyle V=\pi \int_a^bf^2(x)dx

It's called the disk method. There are other available methods to compute the volume.

We have

f(x)=xe^x

And the boundaries defined as x=1, y=0 and revolved around the x-axis. The left endpoint of the integral is easily identified as x=0, because it defines the beginning of the region to revolve. So we need to compute

\displaystyle V=\pi \int_0^1(xe^x)^2dx=\pi \int_0^1x^2e^{2x}dx

We need to first determine the antiderivative

\displaystyle I=\int x^2e^{2x}dx

Let's integrate by parts using the formula

\displaystyle \int u.dv=u.v-\int v.du

We pick u=x^2,\ dv=e^{2x}dx

Then du=2xdx,\ v=\frac{e^{2x}}{2}

Applying by parts:

\displaystyle I=x^2\frac{e^{2x}}{2}-\int 2x\frac{e^{2x}}{2}dx

\displaystyle I=\frac{x^2e^{2x}}{2}-\int xe^{2x}dx

Now we solve

\displaystyle I_1=\int xe^{2x}dx

Making u=x,\ dv=e^{2x}dx

\displaystyle du=dx,\ v=\frac{e^{2x}}{2}

Applying by parts again:

\displaystyle I_1=x\frac{e^{2x}}{2}-\int \frac{e^{2x}}{2}dx

\displaystyle I_1=\frac{xe^{2x}}{2}-\frac{1}{2}\int e^{2x}dx

The last integral is directly computed

\displaystyle \int e^{2x}dx=\frac{e^{2x}}{2}

Replacing every integral computed above

\displaystyle I=\frac{x^2e^{2x}}{2}-\left(\frac{xe^{2x}}{2}-\frac{1}{2}\frac{e^{2x}}{2}\right)

Simplifying

\displaystyle I=\dfrac{\left(2x^2-2x+1\right)\mathrm{e}^{2x}}{4}

Now we compute the definite integral as the volume

V=\pi \left[\dfrac{\left(2(1)^2-2(1)+1\right)\mathrm{e}^{2(1)}-\left(2(0)^2-2(0)+1\right)\mathrm{e}^{2(0)}}{4}\right]

Finally

V=\pi \dfrac{\mathrm{e}^2-1}{4}=5.018

The Volume is 5.018 cubic units

Consider a container of oxygen gas at a temperature of 23°C that is 1.00 m tall. Compare the gravitational potential energy of a
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Yes, it is reasonable to neglect it.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, a single molecule of oxygen weights 32 g (diatomic oxygen) thus, the mass of kilograms is (consider Avogadro's number):

m=1molec*\frac{1mol}{6.022x10^{23}molec} *\frac{32g}{1mol}*\frac{1kg}{1000g}=5.31x10^{-26}kg

After that, we compute the potential energy 1.00 m above the reference point:

U=mhg=5.31x10^{-26}kg*1.00m*9.8\frac{m}{s^2}=5.2x10^{-25}J

Then, we compute the average kinetic energy at the specified temperature:

K=\frac{3}{2}\frac{R}{Na}T

Whereas N_A stands for the Avogadro's number for which we have:

K=\frac{3}{2} \frac{8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}}{6.022x10^{23}/mol}*(23+273)K\\ \\K=6.13x10^{-21}J

In such a way, since the average kinetic energy energy is about 12000 times higher than the potential energy, it turns out reasonable to neglect the potential energy.

Regards.

You and a highway patrolman are driving at constant speeds in opposite directions on a straight highway. The patrolman is drivin
kompoz [17]

Answer:  75 mph

Explanation:

The Relative Speed for a mobile is equal to the diference between the object and the observer:

Relative Speed (Rs) = Object's Velocity  - Observer's Velocity

Thinking on those terms, we would need to have a universal observer to do any understandable measurement on daily basics. This is why we all use earth as a Static Observer for every measurement we do everyday.

Using Earth as an observer, the Velocity for the Patrolman is:

Patrolman Velocity (Vp) = 60 mph

Because the radar gun does measure the Relative Speed for the object, which is 135 mph, we need to work with the equation to find the Velocity using Earth as a reference.

Object's Relative Velocity = Object's Velocity - Patrolman's Velocity

Object's Velocity = Object's Relative Velocity + Patrolman's Velocity

We need to keep in mind, the Patrolman is going on the opposite direction. Because of this the sign for his velocity should be negative.

Object's Velocity = 135 mph + ( -60 mph)

Object's Velocity = 135 mph - 60 mph

Object's Velocity = 75 mph
