    Tangents and Normals

    The method for all three questions is the same: For (1): Rearranging 2x - y + 1 = 0: y = 2x + 1 Gradient = 2 diff. y = x^2: dy/dx = 2x therefore: 2x = 2 x =1 ie at x=1 the tangent is parralel to 2x- y +1 = 0

    Parabolic question

    let the parabola be y =ax^2 + bx + c Sub (0,-2): -2 = C Sub (1,0): 0 = a + b -2 2 = a + b ____________(1) Sub (3,-8): -8 = 9a + 3b -2 -6 = 9a + 3b -2 = 3a + b____________(2) (2)-(1): -4 = 2a -2 = a b = 4 therefore parabola is y = -2x^2 +4x -2

    bromine water-br2(aq)? HOBr? Question on prac

    HOBr is Hypobromous acid. I agree with your tutors equation. Also the first equation does have water: C6H10 + Br2 <b>(aq)</b> --> C6 H10 Br2 Ill take a stab in saying that the top layer is 1,2-dibromocyclohexane since it would have a density lower than water.

    How do u find the area bounded by the parabola and the latus rectum

    alternatively you could consider the: area = are of rectangle - the area between the parabola and the x-axis ie: Area = 4a*a - Int(between -2a and 2a)[(x^2)/4a] = 4a^2 - (4a^2)/3 = (8a^2)/3

    Help needed with Cambridge Integration Question

    first you need the subsitution u=x - π/2 du = dx and also to recognise that: cosx = cos(u + π/2) = cos(u)cos(π/2) - sin(u)sin(π/2) = - sin(u) then get you to first part, then since its odd and the intergral is between a and -a (in this case pi/2) its equal zero.

    a quick question on application of calculus

    x=1+3cos2t x'= -2.3sin2t = -6sin2t x'' = -4cos2t = -4x from: x'= -6sin2t |sin2t|<=1 therefore max speed when |sin2t|=1; x' = -6 therefore max speed is 6m/s
