Evaluate the following integrals. $$\int x^{2} e^{4 x} d x$$

Short Answer

Expert verified
Question: Evaluate the integral $$\int x^{2} e^{4 x} d x$$. Answer: The integral evaluates to $$\frac{1}{4}x^2 e^{4x} - \frac{1}{8}x e^{4x} + \frac{1}{8} e^{4x} + C$$.

Step by step solution

01

Find du

Differentiate u with respect to x to find du: $$du = \frac{d(x^2)}{dx} = 2x \, dx$$
02

Find v

Integrate dv with respect to x to find v: $$v = \int e^{4x} \, dx = \frac{1}{4} e^{4x} + C$$
03

Apply the integration by parts formula

Use the formula to compute the integral: $$\int x^{2} e^{4 x} d x = uv - \int v \, du$$ $$= x^{2} \big(\frac{1}{4} e^{4x}\big) - \int \big(\frac{1}{4} e^{4x}\big)(2x \, dx)$$
04

Simplify the resulting integral

Simplify the expression: $$= \frac{1}{4}x^2 e^{4x} - \frac{1}{2} \int x e^{4x} \, dx$$ Now we will apply integration by parts again to find the integral $$\int x e^{4x} \, dx$$.
05

Apply integration by parts again

Choose new u and dv as follows: $$u = x$$ $$dv = e^{4x} \, dx$$ Find du: $$du = dx$$ Find v: $$v = \int e^{4x} \, dx = \frac{1}{4} e^{4x} + C$$ Apply the integration by parts formula: $$\int x e^{4x} \, dx = uv - \int v \, du$$ $$= x \big(\frac{1}{4} e^{4x}\big) - \int \big(\frac{1}{4} e^{4x}\big) \, dx$$
06

Simplify and find the remaining integral

Simplify the expression: $$= \frac{1}{4}x e^{4x} - \frac{1}{4} \int e^{4x} \, dx$$ Now find the integral: $$= \frac{1}{4}x e^{4x} - \frac{1}{4} \big(\frac{1}{4} e^{4x} + C\big)$$
07

Substitute back and write the final answer

Substitute the result from Step 5 and 6 back into the expression from Step 4: $$\int x^{2} e^{4 x} d x = \frac{1}{4}x^2 e^{4x} - \frac{1}{2} \big(\frac{1}{4}x e^{4x} - \frac{1}{4} \big(\frac{1}{4} e^{4x} + C\big)\big)$$ Simplify the expression and add a constant of integration: $$\int x^{2} e^{4 x} d x = \frac{1}{4}x^2 e^{4x} - \frac{1}{8}x e^{4x} + \frac{1}{8} e^{4x} + C$$

Recall that the substitution \(x=a \sec \theta\) implies that \(x \geq a\) (in which case \(0 \leq \theta<\pi / 2\) and \(\tan \theta \geq 0\) ) or \(x \leq-a\) (in which case \(\pi / 2<\theta \leq \pi\) and \(\tan \theta \leq 0\) ). $$ \begin{array}{l} \text { Show that } \int \frac{d x}{x \sqrt{x^{2}-1}}= \\ \qquad\left\\{\begin{array}{ll} \sec ^{-1} x+C=\tan ^{-1} \sqrt{x^{2}-1}+C & \text { if } x>1 \\ -\sec ^{-1} x+C=-\tan ^{-1} \sqrt{x^{2}-1}+C & \text { if } x<-1 \end{array}\right. \end{array} $$

Find the volume of the described solid of revolution or state that it does not exist. The region bounded by \(f(x)=\left(x^{2}-1\right)^{-1 / 4}\) and the \(x\) -axis on the interval (1,2] is revolved about the \(y\) -axis.

\(\pi < \frac{22}{7}\) One of the earliest approximations to \(\pi\) is \(\frac{22}{7} .\) Verify that \(0 < \int_{0}^{1} \frac{x^{4}(1-x)^{4}}{1+x^{2}} d x=\frac{22}{7}-\pi .\) Why can you conclude that \(\pi < \frac{22}{7} ?\)

Use the following three identities to evaluate the given integrals. $$\begin{aligned}&\sin m x \sin n x=\frac{1}{2}[\cos ((m-n) x)-\cos ((m+n) x)]\\\&\sin m x \cos n x=\frac{1}{2}[\sin ((m-n) x)+\sin ((m+n) x)]\\\&\cos m x \cos n x=\frac{1}{2}[\cos ((m-n) x)+\cos ((m+n) x)]\end{aligned}$$ $$\int \cos x \cos 2 x d x$$

The cycloid is the curve traced by a point on the rim of a rolling wheel. Imagine a wire shaped like an inverted cycloid (see figure). A bead sliding down this wire without friction has some remarkable properties. Among all wire shapes, the cycloid is the shape that produces the fastest descent time. It can be shown that the descent time between any two points \(0 \leq a \leq b \leq \pi\) on the curve is $$\text { descent time }=\int_{a}^{b} \sqrt{\frac{1-\cos t}{g(\cos a-\cos t)}} d t$$ where \(g\) is the acceleration due to gravity, \(t=0\) corresponds to the top of the wire, and \(t=\pi\) corresponds to the lowest point on the wire. a. Find the descent time on the interval \([a, b]\) by making the substitution \(u=\cos t\) b. Show that when \(b=\pi\), the descent time is the same for all values of \(a ;\) that is, the descent time to the bottom of the wire is the same for all starting points.
