Use the following three identities to evaluate the given integrals. $$\begin{aligned}&\sin m x \sin n x=\frac{1}{2}[\cos ((m-n) x)-\cos ((m+n) x)]\\\&\sin m x \cos n x=\frac{1}{2}[\sin ((m-n) x)+\sin ((m+n) x)]\\\&\cos m x \cos n x=\frac{1}{2}[\cos ((m-n) x)+\cos ((m+n) x)]\end{aligned}$$ $$\int \sin 5 x \sin 7 x d x$$
Many methods needed Show that \(\int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{\sqrt{x} \ln x}{(1+x)^{2}} d x=\pi\) in the following steps. a. Integrate by parts with \(u=\sqrt{x} \ln x.\) b. Change variables by letting \(y=1 / x.\) c. Show that \(\int_{0}^{1} \frac{\ln x}{\sqrt{x}(1+x)} d x=-\int_{1}^{\infty} \frac{\ln x}{\sqrt{x}(1+x)} d x\) and conclude that \(\int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{\ln x}{\sqrt{x}(1+x)} d x=0.\) d. Evaluate the remaining integral using the change of variables \(z=\sqrt{x}\) (Source: Mathematics Magazine 59, No. 1 (February 1986): 49).
A long, straight wire of length \(2 L\) on the \(y\) -axis carries a current \(I\). According to the Biot-Savart Law, the magnitude of the magnetic field due to the current at a point \((a, 0)\) is given by $$B(a)=\frac{\mu_{0} I}{4 \pi} \int_{-L}^{L} \frac{\sin \theta}{r^{2}} d y$$ where \(\mu_{0}\) is a physical constant, \(a>0,\) and \(\theta, r,\) and \(y\) are related as shown in the figure. a. Show that the magnitude of the magnetic field at \((a, 0)\) is $$B(a)=\frac{\mu_{0} I L}{2 \pi a \sqrt{a^{2}+L^{2}}}$$ b. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at \((a, 0)\) due to an infinitely long wire \((L \rightarrow \infty) ?\)
Use integration by parts to evaluate the following integrals. $$\int_{0}^{1} x \ln x d x$$
Imagine that today you deposit \(\$ B\) in a savings account that earns interest at a rate of \(p \%\) per year compounded continuously. The goal is to draw an income of \(\$ I\) per year from the account forever. The amount of money that must be deposited is \(B=I \int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-n t} d t,\) where \(r=p / 100 .\) Suppose you find an account that earns \(12 \%\) interest annully and you wish to have an income from the account of \(\$ 5000\) per year. How much must you deposit today?
