A point moves on a curve in the \(\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{y}\) plane in such a way that the angle made by the tangent to the curve with the \(\mathrm{x}\) - axis is three times the angle between the radius vector and the \(\mathrm{x}\) -axis. Find the Cartesian equation of the family of curves satisfying this condition.
The attraction of a spherical mass on a particle within the mass is directed toward the center of the sphere and is proportional to the distance from the center. Suppose a straight tube were bored through the center of the earth and a particle of mass \(\mathrm{m} \mathrm{lb}\). were dropped into the tube. If the radius of the earth is \(3960 \mathrm{mi}\)., find how long it will take a) to pass through the tube; b) to drop halfway to the center. Neglect resistance.
A substance in solution, for example, cane sugar, is decomposed in a chemical reaction into other substances through the presence of acids, and the rate at which the reaction takes place is proportional to the mass of sugar still unchanged. We then have \((\mathrm{dx} / \mathrm{dt})=\mathrm{k}(\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{x})\), where \(\mathrm{x}\) is the amount of sugar converted in time \(\mathrm{t}\) and \(\mathrm{a}\) is the original amount of sugar. Find the dependence of the sugar converted on time \(t\).
A body falls from a height of \(300 \mathrm{ft}\). What distance has it traveled after 4 sec. if subject to \(g\), the earth's acceleration?
A body falls with an initial velocity of \(1000 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}\). and is subject to the acceleration of gravity \(\left(\mathrm{g} \approx 32 \mathrm{ft} . / \mathrm{sec}^{2}\right.\).). What distance does it fall in \(3 \mathrm{sec}\) ?
