Moment of inertia for a cylinder with increasing density (moment of inertia integral).
Given a cylinder of mass M, radius R, length L and quadratically increasing density rho=ks^2, where s is the distance from the symmetry axis, we calculate the moment of inertia of a cylinder about its symmetry axis.
We begin with a reminder of the formula for the moment of inertia of a thin shell: I=MR^2, because we plan to split our cylinder into nested thin cylindrical shells.
Next, we get a reminder of the definition of density: rho=M/V, which can be turned around to say M=rho*V, but only if rho has a single well defined value over an entire volume.
This is part of the motivation for splitting into thin cylindrical shells: using a thin shell mass increment of dm, the entire volume of the...

Acceleration and force on the driver as a car brakes to a stop.
Просмотров 992 часа назад
Given the initial velocity of a car and the braking distance, we calculate the acceleration of the car, then - given the mass of the driver - we compute the horizontal force on the driver as a car brakes to a stop. Special note at the end: verification that kg*m/s^2 are Newtons (units of force).
Free fall in an accelerating elevator: relative velocity at impact.
Просмотров 904 часа назад
If you are in an elevator accelerating downward, how long will it take for a ball to land on the floor, and what's the relative velocity when the ball strikes the floor? We analyze this problem from two different perspectives. First, we use a stationary "external" reference frame, in which the elevator is accelerating at 3.5m/s^2, and we solve the problem using the standard kinematics equations...
Vertical free fall with two objects + accelerating reference frame analysis.
Просмотров 344 часа назад
In this vertical free fall problem, we are given two objects in free-fall. One ball is dropped from the top of a building, and the second ball is thrown straight upward. We solve for the time at which the balls collide, the height at which the balls collide and the relative velocity of the balls when they collide. We notice a coincidence that's too important to ignore: the relative velocity at ...
How to find the final velocity and displacement for constant acceleration from rest.

Given a car starting from rest with a given acceleration and the time duration for that acceleration, we find the final velocity and displacement by using the constant acceleration kinematics equations.
Derivation of the integral of 1/(a^2+x^2)=1/a*arctan(x/a)+C.
Просмотров 21916 часов назад
You've probably seen the integral of 1/(a^2 x^2) in a standard table of integrals, but how do we derive it? It turns out we can use a simple u-substitution or informally use the reverse chain rule in order to compute the integral of 1/(a^2 x^2). In this video, we start by showing the chain rule backwards approach to the integral, then we use a u-substitution to verify that we get the same answe...
Find the definite integral of x*sqrt(x-1) on [1,2]: u-substitution and transforming the limits.
Просмотров 48419 часов назад
We use a u-substitution and transform the limits of integration to find the definite integral of x*sqrt(x-1) on the interval [1,2]. The standard thing we try first for an integral of this type is to let u equal the interior of the square root. So, we let u=x-1 and du=dx, but we have to take care of the x in the integrand. This is where we solve for x in our original substitution to get x=u 1, a...
How to find the arc length of a semicircle using calculus.

We find the arc length of a circle of radius 1 by using the standard formula for arc length in rectangular coordinates. Bonus: one minute derivation of the arc length formula as a reminder! To compute the arc length of a semicircle, we need a formula for the semicircle as a function, so starting with the formula x^2 y^2=1 for a circle of radius 1 centered at the origin, we solve for y and get y...
Moment of inertia with variable density: thick spherical shell with variable density rho=k/r.
Просмотров 12121 час назад
Given a thick spherical shell of mass M, inner radius a, outer radius b, and non-uniform density rho=k/r, we compute the moment of inertia in terms of M, a and b by using our previous result for the moment of inertia of a thin spherical shell: I=1/3MR^2. We start with a quick reminder of density: rho=M/V which can be turned around to say M=rho*V, in other words, we can find mass by taking densi...
Cut the parabola in half using calculus: y=1-x^2 cut in half by a horizontal line y=c.

In this challenging area integral problem, we are given the region bounded by y=1-x^2 and the x axis. The goal of the problem is to calculate c so the line y=c cuts this area in half, and we cut the parabola in half using calculus. We begin by computing the total area under the parabola y=1-x^2, and this is just a standard definite integral on [-1,1] of 1-x^2. We take advantage of symmetry and ...
Tension before and after a mass and pulley system is released (Atwood machine problem)

Given a mass and pulley system on a smooth incline, we compute the tension in the string joining the masses when the system is held stationary, then we compute the tension in the Atwood machine when it is accelerating. The analysis of the stationary mass and pulley system is simple: the tension in the string must be equal to the weight of the hanging mass in order to guarantee the hanging mass ...
How to find the impact velocity of a projectile launched from a given height.

Given a projectile launched from a given height with a given speed and launch angle, we show how to find the impact velocity of a projectile.

How to find the volume of a paraboloid using shells (y=1-x^2 revolved about the y-axis).
Просмотров 15114 дней назад
A paraboloid of revolution is defined by the curve y=1-x^2, which makes a region in the first quadrant bounded by the x and y axes. Revolving this region about the y-axis, we obtain a solid paraboloid, and we show how to find the volume of a paraboloid using shells. We start by visualizing a thin cylindrical shell with an arbitrary radius of x. This shell has a height given by the height on the...
Integral of sin2x/(1+cos2x) on [0,pi/4] using the reverse chain rule or chain rule backwards.

In this video, we compute the integral of sin(2x)/(1 cos(2x)) using the chain rule backwards, also called the reverse chain rule. In other words, we're recognizing the consequences of the chain rule in an integral, rather than relying on an explicit u-substitution. We...
How to transform the limits of integration: definite integral of 3x/sqrt(x^2+1) on [0,2].

    Two other approaches (both already exploiting the vertical symmetry so the whole area is just the right half of 2/3): First: compute the bottom half of the area by decomposing into a rectangle of sides c and sqrt(1-c) added to the area under the curve (to the x-axis) between x = c and x = 1. So that's c*sqrt(1-c) + ∫(1-x^2)dx between c and 1. Equate that to 1/3, solve for c. Second: work in terms of strips from the curve to y-axis. So ∫xdy between y = c to y = 1, change variable, ∫xd(1-x^2) = ∫x(-2x)dx = ∫-2x^2dx between x =sqrt(1-c) to x = 0. Again, equate to 1/3, solve for c.

    What i do intuitively is that when you have integrate f(x) w.r.t x , we have the formula , but we can't integrate f(2x) w.r.t x , so we scale the dx by a factor of 2 and divide by 2 . Now integral of f(2x) w.r.t to 2x is possible.

    This is a great way to show the methods of calc II, but it is not actually a proof, since the values of sine (which are used in the end when you plug the 1 and 0 to the inverse sine function) depend on the fact that π is the ratio between the circumference and the diameter in the first place, so it is kind off circular reasoning. Great content to someone who is studying calculus nonetheless.

    You can also take u^2 = x^2 + 1, then udu = xdx, so you get 3udu/sqrt(u^2) and if you change boundaries appropriately 0 -> 1, 2 -> sqrt 5, the integrand simplifies to 3du, so the solution is 3(sqrt 5 - 1).

      I think the explanation in the video was pretty complete on this -- if you're talking about the first approach to the first method, where sqrt(sin^2(t)) is incorrectly reduced to sin(t), the issue is that the simplification of the square root of the square of a thing should be the absolute value of that thing. By naively replacing sqrt(sin^2(t)) with sin(t), we accidentally convert from a function that is always non-negative to a function that takes on some negative values. So we simplify it to the absolute value of sin(t) in the numerator instead, and that's sin(t) when sin(t) is positive and -sin(t) when sin(t) is negative, and we proceed from there. z

However I am interested in the entire uncertainty of the mean, including the statistical uncertainty (i.e. standard deviation/sqrt(n)) and not just the measurement uncertainty. My understanding is that here I need to again apply the sum formula to add them both together, i.e. sqrt((standard error of mean)^2+(propagated measurement error of mean)^2), am I getting this correctly?
