Compute the following integrals. $$ \int_{0}^{\ln 2} \frac{e^{x}}{e^{2 x}+1} d x $$

Short Answer

Expert verified
\(\frac{1}{2} (\ln 3 - \ln 2)\)

Step by step solution

01

Set Up the Substitution

Let, \( u = e^{2x}+ 1 \). Compute the derivative of \( u \) so we can replace \( dx \) in the integral. The derivative \( du = 2e^{2x} dx \). Here, we notice that we don't have \( 2e^{2x} \) in the given problem, but there’s a similar term, \( e^{x} \). We could revise our \( u \) to suit better to the given problem, but by dividing by \( 2e^{x} \) we make it fit. Hence, \( dx = \frac{du}{2e^{x}} \).
02

Perform the Substitution

Substitute \( u \) and \( dx \) into our original integral: \[ \int_{1}^{3} \frac{e^{x}}{u} \cdot \frac{du}{2e^{x}} \]After cancellation of \( e^{x} \) in both numerator and denominator, this simplifies to: \[ \frac{1}{2} \int_{1}^{3} \frac{1}{u} du\]
03

Compute the Integral

This is now a straightforward integral. The antiderivative of \( \frac{1}{u} \) is \( \ln|u| \). Apply the fundamental theorem of calculus, \[ \frac{1}{2} [ \ln|u| ]_{1}^{3} = \frac{1}{2} (\ln 3 - \ln 1) \]
04

Substitute Back

Substitute back our original expression for \( u = e^{2x} + 1 \). \[ \frac{1}{2} (\ln (2 e^{\ln 2} + 1) - \ln (e^0 + 1)) = \frac{1}{2} (\ln 3 - \ln 2)) \]

Compute the following integrals. $$ \int \frac{\sec ^{2}(\ln x)}{x} d x $$

It is April and, with the arrival of warm weather a pile of snow has turned into a puddle and the puddle is drying up. At time \(t=0\) there are 4 gallons of water in the puddle. The rate of change of water in the puddle is given by \(f(t)=-e^{0.2 t}\) gallons per hour. How much water is in the puddle \(t\) hours from now? When will the puddle dry up?

Find the given indefinite integral. $$ \int \frac{2 t}{\sqrt{2 t+6}} d t $$

A little rock rolls off a little cliff. It experiences an acceleration of \(-32 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}^{2}\). (a) The derivative of the velocity function \(v(t)\) is acceleration. Therefore, the antiderivative (indefinite integral) of acceleration is velocity. \(v(t)=\int a(t) d t\). Find \(v(t)\) assuming that the rock's initial vertical velocity is zero. (You'll use this initial condition to find the constant of integration.) (b) Let \(s(t)\) give the rock's height at any time \(t\). We'll call \(s\) the position function. The derivative of the position function \(s(t)\) is velocity. Therefore, the antiderivative (the indefinite integral) of velocity is the distance function. \(s(t)=\int v(t) d t\). Find \(s(t)\) assuming that the cliff has a height of 25 feet. (You'll use this initial condition to find the constant of integration.)
