Find \(f\). $$f^{\prime}(t)=\sqrt{t}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{t}}, \quad f(4)=0$$

Short Answer

Expert verified
The function is \(f(t) = \frac{2}{3} t^{3/2} + 2 t^{1/2} - \frac{28}{3}\).

Step by step solution

01

Integrate the derivative

To find the function \(f(t)\), integrate the given derivative \(f^{\prime}(t)\).\[\int f^{\prime}(t) \, dt = \int \left( \sqrt{t} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{t}} \right) \, dt\]Integrate each term separately.
02

Integrate the first term

Integrate \(\sqrt{t}\). Recall that \(\sqrt{t} = t^{1/2}\).\[\int t^{1/2} \, dt = \frac{t^{3/2}}{3/2} + C = \frac{2}{3} t^{3/2} + C_1\]
03

Integrate the second term

Integrate \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{t}}\). Recall that \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{t}} = t^{-1/2}\).\[\int t^{-1/2} \, dt = \frac{t^{1/2}}{1/2} + C = 2 t^{1/2} + C_2\]
04

Combine the results

Combine the integrations. Note that the constants of integration can be combined into a single constant.\[f(t) = \frac{2}{3} t^{3/2} + 2 t^{1/2} + C\]
05

Apply the initial condition

Use the initial condition \(f(4) = 0\) to find the constant \(C\).\[f(4) = \frac{2}{3} (4)^{3/2} + 2 \cdot (4)^{1/2} + C = 0\]Evaluate \((4)^{3/2}\) and \((4)^{1/2}\) and solve for \(C\).
06

Simplify the equation with the initial condition

Simplify:\[f(4) = \frac{2}{3} \cdot 8 + 2 \cdot 2 + C = 0\]\[\frac{16}{3} + 4 + C = 0\]\[\frac{16}{3} + \frac{12}{3} + C = 0\]\[\frac{28}{3} + C = 0\]\[C = -\frac{28}{3}\]Thus, the full function is:\[f(t) = \frac{2}{3} t^{3/2} + 2 t^{1/2} - \frac{28}{3}\]

Key Concepts

These are the key concepts you need to understand to accurately answer the question.

Integral Calculus
To find the original function from its derivative using integral calculus, you need to integrate the derivative. Integration is essentially the reverse process of differentiation.
When given a derivative like in this exercise, the aim is to find the primitive function, also known as the antiderivative.
For the given derivative \(f^{\prime}(t) = \sqrt{t} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{t}}\), you'll integrate each term separately.
Initial Conditions
When you're solving an indefinite integral, a constant of integration, typically denoted as \(C\), appears.
It's because the derivative of a constant is zero, meaning there are infinitely many possible antiderivatives.
Initial conditions help pinpoint the specific solution.
In our exercise, the initial condition is \(f(4) = 0\), which tells us the exact value of \(C\).
Applying the initial conditions involves substituting the given values into the integrated function to solve for \(C\). This ensures the function exactly matches the conditions provided.
Function Reconstruction
Function reconstruction means finding the original function from its derivative.
After integrating the derivative and obtaining a general form of the function, you then use initial conditions to determine any constants of integration.
In our exercise, we combined the integrations of individual terms and then solved for \(C\) using the condition \(f(4) = 0\).
This gave us the specific function \(f(t) = \frac{2}{3} t^{3/2} + 2 t^{1/2} - \frac{28}{3}\).
Each term in this function corresponds to parts of the original derivative, reconstructed through integration.
