A train leaves a train station at 1 p.m. it travels at an average rate of 60 mi/hr. a high-speed train leaves the same station a

n hour later. it travels at an average rate of 96 mi/hr. the second train follows the same route as the first train on a track parallel to the first. in how many hours will the second train catch up with the first train?

Use green's theorem to compute the area inside the ellipse x252+y2172=1. use the fact that the area can be written as ∬ddxdy=12∫

Pavel [41]

The area of the ellipse $E$ is given by

$\displaystyle\iint_E\mathrm dA=\iint_E\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy$

To use Green's theorem, which says

$\displaystyle\int_{\partial E}L\,\mathrm dx+M\,\mathrm dy=\iint_E\left(\frac{\partial M}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial L}{\partial y}\right)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy$

( $\partial E$ denotes the boundary of $E$ ), we want to find $M(x,y)$ and $L(x,y)$ such that

$\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial L}{\partial y}=1$

and then we would simply compute the line integral. As the hint suggests, we can pick

$\begin{cases}M(x,y)=\dfrac x2\\\\L(x,y)=-\dfrac y2\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial x}=\dfrac12\\\\\dfrac{\partial L}{\partial y}=-\dfrac12\end{cases}\implies\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial L}{\partial y}=1$

The line integral is then

$\displaystyle\frac12\int_{\partial E}-y\,\mathrm dx+x\,\mathrm dy$

We parameterize the boundary by

$\begin{cases}x(t)=5\cos t\\y(t)=17\sin t\end{cases}$

with $0\le t\le2\pi$ . Then the integral is

$\displaystyle\frac12\int_0^{2\pi}(-17\sin t(-5\sin t)+5\cos t(17\cos t))\,\mathrm dt$

$=\displaystyle\frac{85}2\int_0^{2\pi}\sin^2t+\cos^2t\,\mathrm dt=\frac{85}2\int_0^{2\pi}\mathrm dt=85\pi$

###

Notice that $x^{2/3}+y^{2/3}=4^{2/3}$ kind of resembles the equation for a circle with radius 4, $x^2+y^2=4^2$ . We can change coordinates to what you might call "pseudo-polar":

$\begin{cases}x(t)=4\cos^3t\\y(t)=4\sin^3t\end{cases}$

which gives

$x(t)^{2/3}+y(t)^{2/3}=(4\cos^3t)^{2/3}+(4\sin^3t)^{2/3}=4^{2/3}(\cos^2t+\sin^2t)=4^{2/3}$

as needed. Then with $0\le t\le2\pi$ , we compute the area via Green's theorem using the same setup as before:

$\displaystyle\iint_E\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=\frac12\int_0^{2\pi}(-4\sin^3t(12\cos^2t(-\sin t))+4\cos^3t(12\sin^2t\cos t))\,\mathrm dt$

$=\displaystyle24\int_0^{2\pi}(\sin^4t\cos^2t+\cos^4t\sin^2t)\,\mathrm dt$

$=\displaystyle24\int_0^{2\pi}\sin^2t\cos^2t\,\mathrm dt$

$=\displaystyle6\int_0^{2\pi}(1-\cos2t)(1+\cos2t)\,\mathrm dt$

$=\displaystyle6\int_0^{2\pi}(1-\cos^22t)\,\mathrm dt$

$=\displaystyle3\int_0^{2\pi}(1-\cos4t)\,\mathrm dt=6\pi$

Ruth has 6 chores to do. If each chore does not depend on the others, in how many different orders could she do the chores?

Mice21 [21]

First chore, 6 to choose from.
Second chore, 5 to choose from.
Third chore, 4 to choose from.
Fourth chore, 3 to choose from.
Fifth chore, 2 to choose from.
Sixth chore, 1 to "choose" from.
The total number of orders possible is the product
6*5*4*3*2*1=6!=720
