12 AnswersAircraft1 decade agoCalculus shell method... I don't understand why my answer is wrong.?
the question is: y = 4x-x^2, y = 3, rotated about x = 1
my radius is x and my height is 4x - x^2 and I'm deriving relative to x between 0 and 1.
My final answer is 3.1pi.. but the book's answer is 8pi/3. WHY!??!
Note: Go Giants! =D
3 AnswersMathematics1 decade agoI have a general calculus question (disk method)?
I don't understand when I should integrate with respect to y. At first I thought you integrate with respect to y when you revolve the graph around the y-axis... but that doesn't seem to be the case...?
Also when revolving in respect to y, if I'm revolving the graph around, say x = 8, how do I tweak the equation to compensate? My textbook is very unclear...
If it's too much trouble, you only have to answer the first question... that's the most pressing issue I have so far.
Thanks!! :]
1 AnswerMathematics1 decade agoI need help with a quick kinematics problem (well, quicker for you guys... I'm stuck)?

A projectile's launch speed is 5x its speed at maximum height. What is its launch angle?
I've already found the initial y velocity... but that seems so useless!
Can someone please rescue me?!
2 AnswersPhysics1 decade agoI need some help with projectile motion?
Question is:
A rifle that shoots bullets at 460m/s fires at a target 45.7m away. If the center of the target is the same height as the barrel of the rifle, how high above the target must the rifle be pointed so that the bullet hits dead center?
This is hard because I'm not allowed to use the range formula. Without this, I don't even know where to start because the kinematic equations don't seem to help. Could anybody help please?
