This cannot be answered. There is just too much missing information to even guess at a possible answer. There are multiple break speeds which can vary the vector of the cue ball after impact, each resulting in the cue ball landing 14.25 ft from the table. Here are two clear ...

Elena, i have a little problem with your calculation. I was thinking the velocity of the swimmer should tally with one of the adjacent sides of the triangle and not the hypothenus. the hypothenus should be in line with the resultant velocity of the swimmer.

Evaluate the following definite integral: integral at a = -1, b=2 -4dx/(9x^2+30x+25) Would I have to separate them in 3 terms as: -4 ∫1/9x^2 + ∫1/30x + ∫1/25 resulting in: -4/(3x^3)+ (15x^2)+ C? and from there I can replace a and b f(a) - f(b)? Thank you

Calculus - Verification
Hello, I just wanted to verify this definite integral and if my answer is good: a = 1 and b = 4 integral of (1 - 1/x^2)(x^2 + 1/x) dx = (x + 1/x)(x^3/3 + lnx) + C (4 + 1/4)(64/3 + ln4) - (1 + 1)(1/3 + ln1) = 96.56 - 0.6666 = 95.89 THank you

so I tried again and I got this, don't know if it's good:(I also put the wrong a and b) integral 0 = a and b = pi/3 of sinx dx/(1+cos)^2 u = cosx du= -sinxdx -1 du = sinx dx so: integral -1 du/(1+u)^2 = 1/(u+1) if x = 0, then u = 1 if x = pi/3, then u = 1 so 1/1+1 - 1/...

yes, I added the vectors, of the charges. for a uniform line, E= kλ/R. Since the charge on the line is negative, it goes towards the line, and only has an x component of E= -12 kN/C. For the point charge, which is negative, E is away from the source, I got E=30.2 kN/C for...
