Chapter 12.5, Problem 15E

Investigation Consider the graph of the vector-valued function r ( t ) = t i + ( 4 − t 2 ) j + t 3 k on the interval [0, 2].

(a) Approximate the length of the curve by finding the length of the line segment connecting its endpoints.

(b) Approximate the length of the curve by summing the lengths of the line segments connecting the terminal points of the vectors r(0), r(0.5), r(l), r(1.5), and r(2).

(c) Describe how you could obtain a more accurate approximation by continuing the processes in parts (a) and (b).

(d) Use the integration capabilities of a graphing utility to approximate the length of the curve. Compare this result with the answers in parts (a) and (b).

A driver is traveling along a straight road when a buffalo runs into the street. This driver has a reaction time of 0.75 seconds. When the driver sees the buffalo he is traveling at 44 ft/s, his car can decelerate at 2 ft/s^2 when the brakes are applied. What is the stopping distance between when the driver first saw the buffalo, to when the car stops.
Topic 2 Evaluate S x dx, using u-substitution. Then find the integral using 1-x2 trigonometric substitution. Discuss the results! Topic 3 Explain what an elementary anti-derivative is. Then consider the following ex integrals: fed dx x 1 Sdx In x Joseph Liouville proved that the first integral does not have an elementary anti- derivative Use this fact to prove that the second integral does not have an elementary anti-derivative. (hint: use an appropriate u-substitution!)
