3 a) yeh

4c yeh, but i had 1/2 + ...
6 b) lol i wrote something like "cause its proportional to the velocity" LOL
ohhh i had these answers too:D....but i had for 6b) that the rain drop is falling from the sky? thus the negative sign....and then what u had!

yay! i hope your right!....

crap, i can't believe i got the last question right only to make a numerical error on 4c) :(

btw, i'm pretty sure the answer they were looking for on 6 b) was air resistance. it's like, g is to gravity as 0.2v^2 is to air resistance.



if anyone is willing to take the time to post up answers to the numerical questions, that would be greatly appreciated.

It seems i got the proof questions but i made some incredibly stupid numerical errors.

lol, and i hated how they did the y axis horizontally and teh x axis vertically!

AHAH, that's not what i got either. I got 2e -1/2-e^2 :(

Ehh... I cbf doing the integrals right now...

but for the volumes

3c

each cylinder has height y, radius x

NOTE: A cylinder is 2pi(r) [The circumference of the circle] * h [The height of the cylinder]

therefore each is 2pi(x)(y)

2pi e-INT-1 (x)(y) dx

2pi e-INT-1 (x)(lnx/x) dx

2 pi e-INT-1 ln(x) * 1 dx

IBP-

u= loge (x)
u'= 1/x

v'=1
v=x

2pi[xlnx - INT x/x dx ] e->1

2pi[xlnx - x] e->1

2pi[e(1)-e - ((1)ln(1) - 1)]

2pi[ 0 - (0 - 1)]

=2pi

actually, gao, i didnt type it right, i got 2e - e^2/2 - 1/2, which is almost what you got

For the probability question part (i), I think I get about 0.02. But I'm not really sure of it.

oops, i typed it wrong too. I think i got what you got *looks hopeful*

anyway, thanks golbez, i think i got 2pi. I guess i'm just waiting on the integrals and the probability questions. The rest were from memory, just proofs?

5di was kind of annoying...

Basically, BCP and BAP are similar coz they have equal sides/angles whatever.

And for a 4 sided polygon each interior angle is (n-2)180/5 degrees = 3pi/5

Therefore Angle BAP = 3pi/5 but bap and ead are pi/5 therefore angle cad = pi/5.

Also, Side AC = AP+PC

And cos (pi/5) = AP/1

So AP = u

Similarly, PC = u

And so AC = 2u

Similarly, AD = 2u


Using the cos rule,

CD^2 = AC^2 + AD^2 - 2(AC)(AD)Cos (CAD)

CD=1

1 = (2u)^2 + (2u)^2 - 2(2u)(2u)u
1= 8u^2 - 8u^3

Rearraging

8u^3-8u^2+1 = 0

As required.

thz... what a stupid mistake... when i tried to fig out what < CAD is... i found it was pi/10=.=
