Given a Midpoint Rule approximation \(M(n)\) and a Trapezoid Rule approximation \(T(n)\) for a continuous function on \([a, b]\) with \(n\) subintervals, show that \(T(2 n)=(T(n)+M(n)) / 2\).
The nucleus of an atom is positively charged because it consists of positively charged protons and uncharged neutrons. To bring a free proton toward a nucleus, a repulsive force \(F(r)=k q Q / r^{2}\) must be overcome, where \(q=1.6 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{C}\) (coulombs) is the charge on the proton, \(k=9 \times 10^{9} \mathrm{N}-\mathrm{m}^{2} / \mathrm{C}^{2}, Q\) is the charge on the nucleus, and \(r\) is the distance between the center of the nucleus and the proton. Find the work required to bring a free proton (assumed to be a point mass) from a large distance \((r \rightarrow \infty)\) to the edge of a nucleus that has a charge \(Q=50 q\) and a radius of \(6 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{m}\)
For what values of \(p\) does the integral \(\int_{2}^{\infty} \frac{d x}{x \ln ^{p} x}\) exist and what is its value (in terms of \(p\) )?
Apply Simpson's Rule to the following integrals. It is easiest to obtain the Simpson's Rule approximations from the Trapezoid Rule approximations, as in Example \(7 .\) Make \(a\) table similar to Table 7.8 showing the approximations and errors for \(n=4,8,16,\) and \(32 .\) The exact values of the integrals are given for computing the error. \(\int_{0}^{4}\left(3 x^{5}-8 x^{3}\right) d x=1536\)
Use the reduction formulas in a table of integrals to evaluate the following integrals. $$\int p^{2} e^{-3 p} d p$$
