Use a computer algebra system to evaluate the definite integral. In your own words, describe how you would integrate \(\int \sec ^{m} x \tan ^{n} x d x\) for each condition. (a) \(m\) is positive and even. (b) \(n\) is positive and odd. (c) \(n\) is positive and even, and there are no secant factors. (d) \(m\) is positive and odd, and there are no tangent factors.
In L'Hôpital's 1696 calculus textbook, he illustrated his rule using the limit of the function \(f(x)=\frac{\sqrt{2 a^{3} x-x^{4}}-a \sqrt[3]{a^{2} x}}{a-\sqrt[4]{a x^{3}}}\) as \(x\) approaches \(a, a>0 .\) Find this limit.
Graphical Analysis In Exercises 61 and 62, graph \(f(x) / g(x)\) and \(f^{\prime}(x) / g^{\prime}(x)\) near \(x=0 .\) What do you notice about these ratios as \(x \rightarrow 0\) ? How does this illustrate L'Hôpital's Rule? \(f(x)=e^{3 x}-1, \quad g(x)=x\)
Sketch the graph of \(g(x)=\left\\{\begin{array}{ll}e^{-1 / x^{2}}, & x \neq 0 \\ 0, & x=0\end{array}\right.\) and determine \(g^{\prime}(0)\).
A "semi-infinite" uniform rod occupies the nonnegative \(x\) -axis. The rod has a linear density \(\delta\) which means that a segment of length \(d x\) has a mass of \(\delta d x .\) A particle of mass \(m\) is located at the point \((-a, 0)\). The gravitational force \(F\) that the rod exerts on the mass is given by \(F=\int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{G M \delta}{(a+x)^{2}} d x\) where \(G\) is the gravitational constant. Find \(F\).
