Question: problem 8.4.3 (3d edition 8.3.3) (previously 8.2.6) moment of 2 meter rod with density `rho(x) = 2 + 6x g/m

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

moment = int(x(2+6x), x, 0, 2) = x^2 + 2x^3 from 0 to 2 = 20 - 0 = 20 g * m

confidence rating #$&*:3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

The mass of an increment of length `dx, with sample point x_i, is (2 + 6 x_i ) `dx.

The moment is mass * distance from axis of rotation. Assuming axis of rotation x = 0:

The moment of the mass in the increment is (2 + 6 x_i) * x_i.

Setting up a Riemann sum and allowing the increment to approach zero, we obtain the integral

moment = int(x(2+6x), x, 0, 2).

Thus the integrand is 2x + 6 x^2. An antiderivative is F(x) = x^2 + 2 x^3, so the definite integral is

moment = int(x(2+6x), x, 0, 2) = F(2) - F(0) = 20.

The moment of the typical increment has units of mass/unit length * length * distance from axis, or (g / m) * m * m = g * m.

The units of the integral are therefore g * m, and the moment of this object is 20 g * m (i.e., 20 gram * meters).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (finding center of mass):

To get the center of mass relative to x = 0 (this was not requested here but you should know how to do this), divide the moment about x = 0 by the mass of the object:

The mass of the object is easily found to be int((2+6x), x, 0, 2) (see above for the mass increment, which leads to the Riemann sum then to the integral).

The center of mass is therefore

center of mass = moment / mass = int(x(2+6x), x, 0, 2) / int((2+6x), x, 0, 2).

The integrand for the denominator is 2 + 6 x, antiderivative G(x) = 2x + 3 x^2 and definite integral G(2) - G(0) = 16 - 0 = 16, meaning that the object has mass 16

grams (more specifcally the units of the denominator will be units of mass / unit length * length = mass, or in this case g / m * m = g).

So the center of mass is at x = 20 g * m /(16 g) = 5/4 (g * m) / g = 5/4 g. **

Question: problem 8.4.14 (4th edition 8.4.12 3d edition 8.3.12) mass between graph of f(x) and g(x), f > g, density `rho(x)

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

dm = A*d

= (f(x) - g(x)) * dx * rho(x)

m = int(rho(x) * (f(x) - g(x)) * dx, x, a, b)

confidence rating #$&*:3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

First you find the mass of a typical increment of width `dx, with sample point x within the interval.

The mass is just area * density.

The area of the region is height * width, or approximately (f(x) - g(x) ) * `dx. The density is `rho(x) so you get the approximation

`dm = area * density

= (f(x) - g(x) ) * 'dx * `rho(x)

= `rho(x) (f(x) - g(x) ) * 'dx.

The Riemann sum is the sum of all such mass increments for a partition of the interval, and at the interval width `dx approaches 0 this sum approaches the integral

int( rho(x) * (f(x) - g(x)), x, a, b).

Question:

What is the mass of an increment at x coordinate x with width `dx?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

mass = A*d = (f(x) - g(x)) * dx * rho(x)

confidence rating #$&*:3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

** You want to think of this as a simple product, just area * density. The area of the region is height * width, or approximately (f(x) - g(x) ) * `dx. The density

is `rho(x) so you get the approximation

mass = area * density = (f(x) - g(x) ) * 'dx * `rho(x) = `rho(x) (f(x) - g(x) ) * 'dx.

Note that `dx stands for delta-x, a finite but small interval and that it's f - g, not f + g. **

Question: problem 8.5.13 (4th edition 8.5. 12) (3d edition 8.4.12) 8.3.6 cylinder 20 ft high rad 6 ft full of water

......!!!!!!!!...................................

13:19:02

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

int(rho * g * A * (30 - y) * dy, y, 0, 20) = 62.4 * 32 * 36pi * (30y - (y^2)/2) from 0 to 20

confidence rating #$&*:3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

STUDENT SOLUTION:

delta W = delta F*(30-y)

delta W = (62.4)(volume)*(30-y)

delta W = 62.4*36*pi*delta y*(30-y)

delta W = (211718.211 - 7057.2737y)delta y

integral [0,20] (211718.211 - 7057.2737y)dy = 211718.211y - 3528.63685y^2

from 0 to 20 = 2,822,909,.48 ft-lb

INSTRUCTOR COMMENTARY

** For the ith interval, using F_i and dist_i for the force required to lift the water and the distance is must be lifted, `rho for the density and A for the cross-

sectional area 36 `pi, the work is

Fi * dist_i = `rho g A 'dyi * (30 - y_i) = `rho g A (30 - yi) 'dy_i.

We thus have a Riemann sum of terms `rho g A (30 - y_i) 'dy_i.

This sum approaches the integral

int(`rho g A (30 - y) dy between y = 0 and y = 20).

The limits are y = 0 and y = 20 because that's where the fluid represented by the terms `rho g A (30 - y_i) 'dyi is (note that the tank for Problem 6 is full of

water, not half full). The 30-y_i is because it's getting pumped to height 30 ft.

Your antiderivative is `rho g A ( 30 y - y^2 / 2).

At this point you can plug in your values for `rho, g and A, then evaluate 30 y - y^2 / 2 at the limits to get your answer.

Question: **** query 8.5.31 (4th edition 8.5.30 3d edition problem 8.4.24)

What is the kinetic energy of a record mass of mass 50 g rad 10 cm rotating at 33 1/3 revolutions per minut?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

KE = (1/2)mv^2

d_ave= m_total / A_total = 50 / (pi * (10)^2) = 1 / (2 * pi) = .159

m = .159 * 2 pi r * dr = r * dr

v = d / t = 2 pi r * (33 1/3 / 60) = 3.4r

KE = .5(r * dr)(3.4r)^2 = 5.78r^3 * dr

int(5.78r^3 * dr, r, 0, 10) = 1.45r^4 from 0 to 10 = 14500 g*cm^2

confidence rating #$&*:3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

** We partition the interval 0 <= r <= 10 cm between the center of the record and its rim.

An small interval of a partition will correspond to an interval of r.

The part of the record for which the radius is within the partition consists of a thin ring of the disk.

For example if 3.4 cm < r < 3.5 cm is an interval of the partition, then the corresponding region of the disk is the ring which is also described by 3.4 cm < r < 3.5

cm. This ring lies between the circle r = 3.4 cm and r = 3.5 cm; its 'width' is .1 cm and its 'average circumference' is somewhere between 2 pi * 3.4 cm (the

circumference of the 'inner' circle) and 2 pi * 3.5 cm (the circumference of the 'outer' circle).

The 'area density' of the record (mass / unit area) is

area density = total mass / total area = 50 grams / total area = 50 grams / (pi * (10 cm)^2) = .16 grams / cm^2, approx.

For a partition with interval width `dr, considering a typical interval with sample point r_i*:

The corresponding 'ring' would have radius r_i* and width `dr.

Its area would be approximately circumference * width = 2 pi r_i* `dr.

The mass of the typical slice would be area * density = .16 * 2 pi r_i* `dr = 1.0 r_i* `dr, approx..

The speed of a point on the slice would be dist / time = 2 pi r_i* (33 1/3 / (60 sec)) = 3.4 r_i*, with speed in cm/s when radius is in cm.

The KE of the slice is therefore .5 m v^2 = .5 ( 1.0 r_i* `dr) * (3.4 r_i*)^2, with KE in gram cm^2 / s^2.

The Riemann sum of all KE contributions would, as `dr -> 0, approach the an integral which represents the total KE:

total KE = integral of .5 ( 1.0 r) (3.4 r)^2 with respect to r, from r = 0 to r = 10.

The simplified form of this expression is approximately 6 r^3; integrating from r = 0 to r = 10 we get approximately 15,000 gram cm^2 / s^2.

The process shown here is correct, but the calculations represented here are not numerically accurate to any degree of precision; you should compare with your results

with the results obtained here and if necessary rework these calculations using more accurate values.

The value of the integral, using .16 * 2 pi r in place of the approximation 1.0 r, is 14 526.72443 g cm^2, to 10 significant figures. This is a ridiculously precise

value, considering that the radius of a pressed disk is consistent to only within perhaps +-.001 cm, with even more significant uncertainty in the mass. A more

reasonable figure would be 14 500 g cm^2 +- 100 g cm^2. **

Question: problem 8.5.17 (4th edition 8.5.16)

Give your solution to the problem.

For this problem, the given solution does not address this specific problem, but solves a similar problem, the solution to which parallels the given problem.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

A = pi * (.5y)^2 = pi/4 * y^2

980 * m = 245pi * y^2 * dy

w = F * d = 245 pi * y^2 * dy * (15 - y) = 245pi * (15y^2 - y^3) * pi * dy

int(245pi * (15y^2 - y^3) * pi * dy, y, 0, 10) = 245pi * (5y^3 - y^4 / 4) from 0 to 10 = 245pi * 2500

Given Solution:

The given solution solves the following problem:

A conical glass is 10 cm high, and at the top its width is 10 cm.

How much work is required to empty the glass by raising the liquid through a straw to a height of 15 cm from the base?

Solution:

** The diameter of the top of the cone is equal to the vertical distance y from the apex to the top.

At height y the diameter of the cone is easily seen to be equal to y, so the cross-section at height y has radius .5 y and therefore area A = `pi ( .5 y ) ^ 2 = `pi /

4 * y^2.

A slice of thickness `dy at height y has approximate volume A * `dy = `pi/4 * y^2 * `dy.

This area is in cm^3 so its mass is equal to the volume and the weight in dynes is 980 * mass = 245 `pi y^2 `dy.

This weight is raised from height y to height 15, a distance of 15 - y. So the work to raise the slice is force * distance = 245 `pi y^2 `dy * ( 15 - y ) = 245 ( 15

- y ) `pi y^2 `dy = 245 `pi ( 15 y^2 - y^3 ) `pi `dy

Slices go from y = 0 to y = 10 cm so the integral is 245 `pi ( 15 y^2 - y^3 ) `pi dy, evaluated from y = 0 to y = 10.

We get 245 `pi * (5 y^3 - y^4 / 4) evaluated between 0 and 10.

The result is 245 `pi * 2500 ergs, close to 2 million ergs.

Most calculations were mentally so check the precise numbers. The process is correct. **

.

STUDENT COMMENT:

I am stuck at a point close to the end on this problem. The integral I have

is from 0 to 10 'rho g A (15-y) dy

INSTRUCTOR RESPONSE:

** Good, but A is a function of y because the glass is tapering. A = `pi r^2. What is the radius r at height y? Just draw a picture--two straight lines for the outline

of the glass--and use proportionalities. Draw some similar triangles if necessary. **
