Find the volume of the solid torus formed when the circle of radius 4 centered at (0,6) is revolved about the \(x\) -axis.
Let \(a>0\) and let \(R\) be the region bounded by the graph of \(y=e^{-a x}\) and the \(x\) -axis on the interval \([b, \infty).\) a. Find \(A(a, b),\) the area of \(R\) as a function of \(a\) and \(b\) b. Find the relationship \(b=g(a)\) such that \(A(a, b)=2\) c. What is the minimum value of \(b\) (call it \(b^{*}\) ) such that when \(b>b^{*}, A(a, b)=2\) for some value of \(a>0 ?\)
Show that \(L=\lim _{n \rightarrow \infty}\left(\frac{1}{n} \ln n !-\ln n\right)=-1\) in the following steps. a. Note that \(n !=n(n-1)(n-2) \cdots 1\) and use \(\ln (a b)=\ln a+\ln b\) to show that $$ \begin{aligned} L &=\lim _{n \rightarrow \infty}\left[\left(\frac{1}{n} \sum_{k=1}^{n} \ln k\right)-\ln n\right] \\ &=\lim _{n \rightarrow \infty} \frac{1}{n} \sum_{k=1}^{n} \ln \left(\frac{k}{n}\right) \end{aligned} $$ b. Identify the limit of this sum as a Riemann sum for \(\int_{0}^{1} \ln x d x\) Integrate this improper integral by parts and reach the desired conclusion.
Suppose that a function \(f\) has derivatives of all orders near \(x=0 .\) By the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, \(f(x)-f(0)=\int_{0}^{x} f^{\prime}(t) d t\) a. Evaluate the integral using integration by parts to show that $$f(x)=f(0)+x f^{\prime}(0)+\int_{0}^{x} f^{\prime \prime}(t)(x-t) d t.$$ b. Show (by observing a pattern or using induction) that integrating by parts \(n\) times gives $$\begin{aligned} f(x)=& f(0)+x f^{\prime}(0)+\frac{1}{2 !} x^{2} f^{\prime \prime}(0)+\cdots+\frac{1}{n !} x^{n} f^{(n)}(0) \\ &+\frac{1}{n !} \int_{0}^{x} f^{(n+1)}(t)(x-t)^{n} d t+\cdots \end{aligned}$$ This expression is called the Taylor series for \(f\) at \(x=0\).
Use the following three identities to evaluate the given integrals. $$\begin{aligned}&\sin m x \sin n x=\frac{1}{2}[\cos ((m-n) x)-\cos ((m+n) x)]\\\&\sin m x \cos n x=\frac{1}{2}[\sin ((m-n) x)+\sin ((m+n) x)]\\\&\cos m x \cos n x=\frac{1}{2}[\cos ((m-n) x)+\cos ((m+n) x)]\end{aligned}$$ $$\int \sin 3 x \cos 7 x d x$$
