Q1. There is a large class of differential equations —the so-called linear ones— for which we can find solutions using the Taylor series method discussed in the Lecture. One such differential equation is

td2xdt2+dxdt+tx=0(∗)

It is a particular case of the more general Bessel differential equation, and one solution of it is given by the Bessel function J_0(t)J0​(t) that we saw in Chapter 1. Notice that (\ast∗) involves not only the first derivative \displaystyle \frac{dx}{dt}dtdx​ but also the second derivative \displaystyle \frac{d^2x}{dt^2}dt2d2x​. For this reason, it is said to be a second order differential equation.

In this problem we will content ourselves with finding a relationship (specifically, a recurrence relation) on the coefficients of a Taylor series expansion about t=0t=0 of a solution to our equation. Hence consider the Taylor series

x(t) = \sum_{k=0}^\infty c_k t^kx(t)=k=0∑∞​ck​tk

Substituting this into (\ast∗) will give you two conditions. The first one is c_1 = 0c1​=0. What is the other one?

Note: this problem involves some nontrivial manipulation of indices in summation notation. Do not get discouraged if it feels more difficult than other problems: it is!

• \displaystyle c_k = \frac{c_{k-2}}{k^2}ck​=k2ck−2​​
• \displaystyle c_k = \frac{c_{k-1}}{k^2}ck​=k2ck−1​​
• \displaystyle c_k = – \frac{c_{k-1}}{(k-1)^2}ck​=−(k−1)2ck−1​​
• \displaystyle c_k = – \frac{c_{k-2}}{k^2}ck​=−k2ck−2​​
• \displaystyle c_k = – \frac{c_{k-2}}{(k-2)^2}ck​=−(k−2)2ck−2​​
• \displaystyle c_k = – \frac{c_{k-1}}{k^2}ck​=−k2ck−1​​

Q1. After drinking a cup of coffee, the amount CC of caffeine in a person’s body obeys the differential equation

\frac{dC}{dt}= -\alpha CdtdC​=−αC

where the constant \alphaα has an approximate value of 0.14 hours^{-1}−1.

Q2. The amount II of a radioactive substance in a given sample will decay in time according to the following equation: \frac{dI}{dt} = -\lambda IdtdI​=−λI Nuclear engineers and scientists tend to be concerned with the half-life of a substance, that is, the time it takes for the amount of radioactive material to be halved.

\frac{dh}{dt} = – \frac{\alpha}{r}hdtdh​=−rα​h

where hh is the height of the object measured from the bottom, and \alphaα is a constant that depends on the viscosity of the fluid.

Find the time it would take the object to drop from h = 6rh=6r to h = 2rh=2r in terms of \alphaα and rr.

Q4. On a cold day you want to brew a nice hot cup of tea. You pour boiling water (at a temperature of 212^\mathrm{o} F212oF) into a mug and drop a tea bag in it. The water cools down in contact with the cold air according to Newton’s law of cooling:

\frac{dT}{dt} = \kappa (A – T)dtdT​=κ(A−T)

where TT is the temperature of the water, A = 32^\mathrm{o} FA=32oF the ambient temperature, and \kappa = 0.36κ=0.36 min^{-1}−1.

The threshold for human beings to feel pain when entering in contact with something hot is around 107^\mathrm{o} F107oF. How many seconds do you have to wait until you can safely take a sip? Round your answer to the nearest integer.

Q5. On the night of April 14, 1912, the British passenger liner RMS Titanic collided with an iceberg and sank in the North Atlantic Ocean. The ship lacked enough lifeboats to accommodate all of the passengers, and many of them died from hypothermia in the cold sea waters. Hypothermia is the condition in which the temperature of a human body drops below normal operating levels (around 36^\mathrm{o} C36oC). When the core body temperature drops below 28^\mathrm{o} C28oC, the hypothermia is said to have become severe: major organs shut down and eventually the heart stops.

If the water temperature that night was -2^\mathrm{o} C−2oC, how long did it take for passengers of the Titanic to enter severe hypothermia? Recall from lecture that heat transfer is described by Newton’s law of cooling:

\frac{dT}{dt} = \kappa (A – T)dtdT​=κ(A−T)

where TT is the body temperature of a passenger, AA the water temperature, and \kappa = 0.016κ=0.016 min^{-1}−1. Give your answer in minutes and round it to the nearest integer.

Practice Quiz 02

Q1. Assume the size PP of a population grows following the differential equation

\frac{dP(t)}{dt} = bP(t)dtdP(t)​=bP(t)

The rate of growth bb is the difference between the birth rate and the mortality rate. The Malthusian model supposes that this rate is constant. Of course we know that does not always happen: factors such as famines, outbreaks of disease or advances in medicine do influence these rates. When modeling some process mathematically it is important to recognize what our assumptions are and when they no longer hold. In this problem and the next we will look at one particular event that would result in a violation of Malthus’ assumption that the growth rate bb is constant over time: the occurrence of famines.

Experimental data suggests that food production FF grows linearly over time:

F(t) = F_0 + stF(t)=F0​+st

We will now make two assumptions:

• Most food is perishable, so that the amount of food available at any given time is exactly the amount produced at that time. This means that we are not taking into account the effect of the possibility of preserving food for long periods of time.
• The amount of food that a person in our population eats is, on average, constant and equal to some number \alphaα. That is, the amount of food necessary to keep everybody fed is \alpha P(t)αP(t).

The so-called Malthusian catastrophe happens when there is not enough food to feed the whole population, that is, when \alpha P(t) = F(t)αP(t)=F(t).

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations considers that a person needs around 1800 kcal/day to be considered well-fed. According to a report released in 2002 by the same organization:

• The world population in 2002 was around 6 billion.
• The population growth rate was estimated at 1.1% and expected to remain approximately constant for several decades.
• Total food production in 2002 was determined to be around 6.13 \cdot 10^{15}6.13⋅1015 kcal, with an expected growth rate of 1.11 \cdot 10^{14}1.11⋅1014 kcal/year.

[Source: FAO, “World Agriculture: Towards 2015/2030. Summary Report”, 2002]

Estimate the world population by the year 2030.

• 8.0 billion
• 8.8 billion
• 8.2 billion
• 8.6 billion
• 7.8 billion
• 8.4 billion

Q2. [Continued from previous question] Estimate when the Malthusian catastrophe would happen if our assumptions continue to hold.

• 39.42 e^{0.011 t} = 61.3 + 1.11 t \Rightarrow t \approx 16639.42e0.011t=61.3+1.11t⇒t≈166 years.
• 39.42 e^{1.1 t} = 61.3 + 1.11 t \Rightarrow t \approx 0.439.42e1.1t=61.3+1.11t⇒t≈0.4 years.
• 0.11 e^{1.1 t} = 61.3 + 1.11 t \Rightarrow t \approx 60.11e1.1t=61.3+1.11t⇒t≈6 years.
• 0.11 e^{0.011 t} = 61.3 + 1.11 t \Rightarrow t \approx 8270.11e0.011t=61.3+1.11t⇒t≈827 years.

Q2. Suppose that, in order to buy a house, you obtain a mortgage. If the lender advertises an annual interest rate rr, your debt DD will increase exponentially according to the simple O.D.E.

\frac{dD}{dt} = rD.dtdD​=rD.

Q3. German physician Ernst Heinrich Weber (1795-1878) is considered one of the fathers of experimental psychology. In his study of perception, he noticed that the perceived difference between two almost-equal stimuli is proportional to the percentual difference between them. In terms of differentials, we can express Weber’s law as

dp = k \frac{dS}{S}dp=kSdS​

where pp is the perceived intensity of a stimulus and SS its actual strength. Observe that \displaystyle \frac{dS}{S}SdS​ is the relative rate of change of SS.

In what way must the magnitude of a stimulus change in time for a human being to perceive a linear growth?

• Logarithmically.
• Rationally.
• Proportional to the square root.
• Linearly.
• Exponentially.
• None of these.

Q4. Some nonlinear differential equations can be reduced to linear ones by a clever change of variables. Bernouilli equations

\frac{dx}{dt} + p(t) x = q(t) x^\alpha, \qquad \alpha \in \mathbb{R}dtdx​+p(t)x=q(t)xα,α∈R

constitute the most important case. Notice that for \alpha=0α=0 or \alpha=1α=1 the above equation is already linear. For other values of \alphaα, the substitution u = x^{1-\alpha}u=x1−α yields a linear differential equation in the variable uu.

Apply the above change of variables in the case

\frac{dx}{dt} + 2tx = x^3dtdx​+2tx=x3

to find the linear differential equations satisfied by uu.

• \displaystyle \frac{du}{dt} + 2tu = 1dtdu​+2tu=1

Q1. For a differential equation

\frac{dx}{dt} = f(x)dtdx​=f(x)

with an equilibrium at x=0x=0, the linearization of the differential equation at the equilibrium is, as per our example in class,

\frac{dx}{dt} = f'(0)x ,dtdx​=f′(0)x,

and one hopes that the solution to the linearized equation provides a good approximation to the original, nonlinear equation. (It does, so long as f'(0)\neq 0f′(0)​=0).

The differential equation

\frac{dx}{dt} = (e^x-1)(x-1)dtdx​=(ex−1)(x−1)

has an equilibrium at x=0x=0. Which of the following is the linearized equation at this equilibrium?

Q2. The differential equation in Question 1 has another equilibrium at x=1x=1. Let’s look at that. Recall, for a differential equation

\frac{dx}{dt} = f(x)dtdx​=f(x)

with an equilibrium at x=ax=a, the linearization of the differential equation at the equilibrium is best expressed as a differential equation on a new variable, h=x-ah=x−a. You should think of hh as a small perturbation to the equilibrium. This perturbation changes at a rate given by the linearization at aa:

\frac{dh}{dt} = f'(a)h ,dtdh​=f′(a)h,

and one hopes that the solution to the linearized equation provides a good approximation for the original, nonlinear equation. (It does, so long as f'(a)\neq 0f′(a)​=0).

\frac{dx}{dt} = (e^x-1)(x-1)dtdx​=(ex−1)(x−1)

has an equilibrium at x=1x=1. What is the linearized equation at this equilibrium?

• \displaystyle\frac{dh}{dt} = -hdtdh​=−h
• \displaystyle\frac{dh}{dt} = (e-1)hdtdh​=(e−1)h
• \displaystyle\frac{dh}{dt} = -ehdtdh​=−eh
• \displaystyle\frac{dh}{dt} = ehdtdh​=eh
• \displaystyle\frac{dh}{dt} = hdtdh​=h
• \displaystyle\frac{dh}{dt} = 0dtdh​=0

Q3. It is easy to determine stability or instability of an equilibrium. Recall that an equilibrium x=ax=a for \displaystyle\frac{dx}{dt}=f(x)dtdx​=f(x) is stable if f'(a)\lt 0f′(a)<0 and is unstable if f'(a)\gt 0f′(a)>0.

Recall from Lecture 18, Newton’s Law of Heat Transfer, which states that

\frac{dT}{dt} = \kappa ( A – T ),dtdT​=κ(A−T),

where \kappa>0κ>0 is a thermal conductivity constant and AA is the (constant) ambient temperature. Find and classify the equilibria in this system.

• T=-AT=−A is the unique equilibrium. It is unstable.
• There are no equilibria, which is why the temperature never quite stops changing.
• T=\kappaT=κ is the unique equilibrium. It is unstable.
• T=\kappaT=κ is the unique equilibrium. It is stable.
• T=AT=A is the unique equilibrium. It is stable.
• There are equilibria at T=0T=0 (unstable) and T=AT=A (stable).

Q4. Consider the differential equation

\frac{dx}{dt} = f(x)dtdx​=f(x)

and assume that f(a)=0f(a)=0 for some constant aa.

Assume also that the function ff has a Taylor expansion at x = ax=a,

f(x) = b(x-a) + O\big((x-a)^2\big)f(x)=b(x−a)+O((x−a)2)

for some constant bb.

Which of the following statements about the differential equation are true? Select all that apply.

• bb is a stable equilibrium if a \gt 0a>0.
• bb is a stable equilibrium if a \lt 0a<0.
• aa is a stable equilibrium if b \lt 0b<0.
• bb is an unstable equilibrium if a \gt 0a>0.
• aa is a stable equilibrium if b \gt 0b>0.

• Neither aa nor bb is an equilibrium point.
• aa is an unstable equilibrium if b \gt 0b>0.
• aa is an unstable equilibrium if b \lt 0b<0.

Q5. Consider the differential equation

\frac{dy}{dt} = -2y + y^2 + y^3dtdy​=−2y+y2+y3

Find and classify all the equilibria.

• y=0y=0: unstable. y=1y=1 and y=-2y=−2: unstable.
• y=1y=1: stable. y=0y=0 and y=-2y=−2: unstable.
• y=0y=0: stable. y=-1y=−1 and y=2y=2: unstable.
• y=0y=0: stable. y=1y=1 and y=-2y=−2: unstable.
• y=2y=2: unstable. y=0y=0 and y=-1y=−1: stable.
• y=0y=0, y=1y=1, and y=-2y=−2: stable.

Q6. Recall from Lecture 19 how we computed the terminal velocity of a falling body with linear drag given by

m\frac{dv}{dt} = mg – \kappa v ,mdtdv​=mg−κv,

where, of course, mm is mass, gg is gravitation, vv is velocity, and \kappa>0κ>0 is the drag coefficient. Can you see how easily one can solve for the equilibrium v_\infty = mg/\kappav∞​=mg/κ?

Very good. Now, let’s use a more realistic model of drag that is quadratic as opposed to linear:

m\frac{dv}{dt} = mg – \lambda v^2 ,mdtdv​=mg−λv2,

where \lambda>0λ>0 is a constant drag coefficient. This differential equation is not as easy to solve (but soon you will learn how). Is there is terminal velocity? What is it?

• \displaystyle v_\infty = \sqrt{\frac{mg}{\lambda}}v∞​=λmg​​ is an unstable equilibrium; there is no terminal velocity.
• \displaystyle v_\infty = 0v∞​=0 is an unstable equilibrium; there is no terminal velocity.
• \displaystyle v_\infty = 0v∞​=0 is an unstable equilibrium; this is the terminal velocity.
• \displaystyle v_\infty = \frac{mg}{\lambda}v∞​=λmg​ is an unstable equilibrium; there is no terminal velocity.
• \displaystyle v_\infty = \sqrt{\frac{mg}{\lambda}}v∞​=λmg​​ is a stable equilibrium; this is the terminal velocity.
• \displaystyle v_\infty = \frac{mg}{\lambda}v∞​=λmg​ is a stable equilibrium; this is the terminal velocity.

Q7. Recall that with continuous compounding at an interest rate of r>0r>0, an investment I(t)I(t) with initial investment I_0=I(0)I0​=I(0) is I(t)=I_0e^{rt}I(t)=I0​ert. What happens if you wish to withdraw funds from the investment at a rate of spending SS, where S>0S>0 is constant? The differential equation is:

\frac{dI}{dt} = rI – SdtdI​=rI−S

Q1. In our lesson, we looked at two oscillators with “sinusoidal” coupling. Other types of coupling are possible as well. Consider the system of two oscillators modeled by

\frac{d\theta_1}{dt} = 2 + \epsilon(e^{\theta_1-\theta_2}-1) \quad ; \quad \frac{d\theta_2}{dt} = 2 + \epsilon(1-e^{\theta_1-\theta_2})dtdθ1​​=2+ϵ(eθ1​−θ2​−1);dtdθ2​​=2+ϵ(1−eθ1​−θ2​)

Consider the phase difference \varphi = \theta_2 – \theta_1φ=θ2​−θ1​. Note that \varphi=0φ=0 (where the oscillators are coupled) is an equilibrium. What is the linearized equation for \varphiφ about 00?

This looks intimidating, but is very straightforward. If you’re not sure how to start, compute \displaystyle \frac{d\varphi}{dt}dtdφ​. Then linearize this about \varphi=0φ=0.

• \displaystyle \frac{d\varphi}{dt}=\epsilon\varphidtdφ​=ϵφ
• \displaystyle \frac{d\varphi}{dt}=-\epsilon\varphidtdφ​=−ϵφ
• \displaystyle \frac{d\varphi}{dt}=2\epsilon\varphidtdφ​=2ϵφ
• \displaystyle \frac{d\varphi}{dt}=\epsilondtdφ​=ϵ
• \displaystyle \frac{d\varphi}{dt}=2\varphidtdφ​=2φ
• \displaystyle \frac{d\varphi}{dt}=-2\epsilon\varphidtdφ​=−2ϵφ

Q2. Biology is full of oscillators. Consider the following biomechanical example. When you walk with your arms free, you may find that they swing back and forth in a periodic manner. Let’s model each arm as a simple oscillator obeying

\frac{d\theta_i}{dt} = adtdθi​​=a

where \theta_1θ1​ and \theta_2θ2​ encode the state of your arm. These are not the angle at which your arms reside; rather, these are abstract measurements of how far along each periodic swing your arm is. Your two arms are connected by your torso, which acts as a torsional spring. When you swing one arm out it imparts an impulse through your shoulders to the other arm (try walking around!).

Which of the following is a reasonable model for the coupling function FF between your two arms? Here, \epsilon>0ϵ>0 is a very small positive constant and the model is:

\frac{d\theta_1}{dt} = a + \epsilon F(\theta_2-\theta_1), \qquad \frac{d\theta_2}{dt} = a – \epsilon F(\theta_2-\theta_1)dtdθ1​​=a+ϵF(θ2​−θ1​),dtdθ2​​=a−ϵF(θ2​−θ1​)

Hint: I suggest you first derive the equation for phase difference \varphi=\theta_2-\theta_1φ=θ2​−θ1​ in terms of F(\varphi)F(φ). Then, consider what happens when you walk around. Do your arms become phase-locked somehow? What stable equilibrium for \varphiφ do you note?

• F(\varphi)=-\sin(\varphi)F(φ)=−sin(φ)
• F(\varphi)=\sin(\varphi)F(φ)=sin(φ)
• F(\varphi)=\tan(\varphi)F(φ)=tan(φ)
• F(\varphi)=-\cos(\varphi)F(φ)=−cos(φ)
• F(\varphi)=\cos(\varphi)F(φ)=cos(φ)

Q3. For the brave: The following model of a biochemical “switch” comes from the (very pleasant) text of Strogatz, Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos. Let G(t)G(t) denote a concentration of a certain gene product, where the gene is switched “on” or “off” depending on the presence of a chemical signal. The production of GG is influenced both by the chemical signal and by autocatalysis (a feedback mechanism) and decay (a natural degradation). After simplification, the behavior of GG follows:

\frac{dG}{dt} = a – bG – \frac{G}{1+G^2}dtdG​=a−bG−1+G2G​

where aa and bb are positive constants and G(t)\geq 0G(t)≥0.

The number and types of equilibria depend on the values of aa and bb. Unfortunately, solving for them analytically (that is, finding exact values) is… challenging. Without determining exactly where the equilibria are, what can you say about them?

• For some values of aa and bb, there are no equilibria.
• All equilibria are unstable.
• There are at most three equilibria. When there are three, then two are stable and one is unstable.
• There is always at least one equilibrium.
• All equilibria are stable.

Q2. \displaystyle \int \frac{x+2}{(x-1)^2} \, dx =∫(x−1)2x+2​dx=

Hint: remember from the Lecture that we can deal with multiple roots in the denominator by using a partial fraction decomposition of the form

\frac{P(x)}{(x-r)^n} = \frac{A_1}{x-r} + \frac{A_2}{(x-r)^2} + \cdots + \frac{A_n}{(x-r)^n}(x−r)nP(x)​=x−rA1​​+(x−r)2A2​​+⋯+(x−r)nAn​​

Clearing denominators results in the equation:

P(x) = A_1 (x-r)^{n-1} + A_2 (x-r)^{n-2} + \cdots + A_n \tag{$\ast$}P(x)=A1​(x−r)n−1+A2​(x−r)n−2+⋯+An​(∗)

Notice that, in this case, the direct technique for finding the coefficients A_1, \ldots, A_nA1​,…,An​ —substituting x=rx=r in (\ast∗)— does not quite work: it only gives you the last coefficient, A_nAn​. In order to find the other coefficients, A_1, \ldots, A_{n-1}A1​,…,An−1​, you can revert to equating the coefficients of each power of xx on both sides of the equation (\ast∗).

Q3. Consider the integral

I(x) = \int \frac{dx}{x^4 – 6x^3 + 12x^2}I(x)=∫x4−6x3+12x2dx​

Factoring the denominator will get you a repeated linear factor —which we have just seen how to deal with— and an irreducible quadratic polynomial —which we know leads to an arctangent (and maybe something more). Now just put everything together to solve this integral!

Hint: when trying to solve for the coefficients of the partial fraction decomposition (there should be four of them), you might feel a little bit overwhelmed. Don’t worry! Start by plugging in x=0x=0 —that should give you one of the coefficients. To find the rest of them, remember that two polynomials are equal if and only if the coefficients of each of the terms are equal. That is,

1 = a x^3 + b x^2 + c x + d1=ax3+bx2+cx+d

if and only if a=0a=0, b=0b=0, c=0c=0 and d=1d=1.

Main Quiz 01

Q1. Recall the definition of definite integrals through Riemann sums:

\int_{x=a}^b f(x)\, dx = \lim_{P: \Delta x \to 0} \sum_{i = 1}^n f(x_i) (\Delta x)_i∫x=ab​f(x)dx=P:Δx→0lim​i=1∑n​f(xi​)(Δx)i​

Here PP is a partition of the interval [a, b][a,b] into nn intervals P_iPi​, each of width (\Delta x)_i(Δx)i​. The point x_ixi​ is a sampling of P_iPi​, that is, a point in the interval P_iPi​. The limit is taken over all partitions as the width of the subdivisions gets smaller and smaller.

One particular choice of partition and sampling that can be used to numerically evaluate definite integrals is the following. With nn fixed, divide the interval [a, b][a,b] into nn subintervals P_iPi​ of common length (\Delta x)_i = (b-a)/n(Δx)i​=(b−a)/n. For the sampling, choose the right endpoint of each P_iPi​; this gives you the formula

x_i = a + i \frac{b-a}{n}xi​=a+inb−a​

With these choices of partition and sampling, compute the Riemann sums for the integral

\int_{x=1}^2 \frac{dx}{x}∫x=12​xdx​

for n=1n=1, n=2n=2 and n=3n=3 subdivisions.

Note: in the next Lecture we will learn that

\int_{x=1}^2 \frac{dx}{x} = \ln 2 \simeq 0.693∫x=12​xdx​=ln2≃0.693

Compare this value to the ones you obtain from the Riemann sums.

Q2. With the same choices of partition and sampling as in the previous problem, evaluate the Riemann sum for the integral

\int_{x=0}^3 x^2 \, dx∫x=03​x2dx

for an arbitrary number nn of subdivisions.

You might need to use any of the following formulas:

\sum_{i=1}^n i = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}, \quad \sum_{i=1}^n i^2 = \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}, \quad \sum_{i=1}^n i^3 = \frac{n^2(n+1)^2}{4}i=1∑n​i=2n(n+1)​,i=1∑n​i2=6n(n+1)(2n+1)​,i=1∑n​i3=4n2(n+1)2​

Q3. The line y=xy=x, the xx-axis and the vertical line x=2x=2 bound a triangle of area 22. Thus,

I = \int_{x=0}^2 x \, dx = 2I=∫x=02​xdx=2

Evaluating the Riemann sum for nn subdivisions for the above integral with the same choices of partition and sampling as in the previous problem yields an approximation RS(n)RS(n) for its value II. The error E(n)E(n) we commit by using this approximation is defined to be the difference

E(n) = RS(n) – IE(n)=RS(n)−I

Some of the following statements are true, while others are false. Among the correct ones, which one is optimal (assuming that you want to know how bad the error can be)?

• E(n)E(n) is in O(1/n^3)O(1/n3) as n \to +\inftyn→+∞
• E(n)E(n) is in O(n^2)O(n2) as n \to +\inftyn→+∞

Q5. Every function can be expressed as the sum of an even function —called its even part— and an odd function —its odd part. They are given by the formulas

f^{\mathrm{even}}(x) = \frac{f(x) + f(-x)}{2}, \qquad f^{\mathrm{odd}}(x) = \frac{f(x) – f(-x)}{2}feven(x)=2f(x)+f(−x)​,fodd(x)=2f(x)−f(−x)​

Notice that, indeed,

f^{\mathrm{even}}(-x) = \frac{f(-x) + f(x)}{2} = f^{\mathrm{even}}(x), \qquad f^{\mathrm{odd}}(-x) = \frac{f(-x) – f(x)}{2} = -f^{\mathrm{odd}}(x)feven(−x)=2f(−x)+f(x)​=feven(x),fodd(−x)=2f(−x)−f(x)​=−fodd(x)

and

f^{\mathrm{even}}(x) + f^{\mathrm{odd}}(x) = \frac{f(x) + f(-x)}{2} + \frac{f(x) – f(-x)}{2} = f(x)feven(x)+fodd(x)=2f(x)+f(−x)​+2f(x)−f(−x)​=f(x)

If f(x) = e^xf(x)=ex, which of the following statements are true? Select all that apply.

• \displaystyle f^{\mathrm{odd}}(x) = 0fodd(x)=0
• \displaystyle f^{\mathrm{even}}(x) = \sinh xfeven(x)=sinhx
• \displaystyle f^{\mathrm{odd}}(x) = \sinh xfodd(x)=sinhx

Main Quiz 01

Q1. Recall that we say that an integral is improper if:

• the integrand blows up somewhere inside or on the boundary of the domain of integration,
• the domain of integration is not bounded, or
• both of the above.

You could also say that an integral that is not improper is proper (although this term is not used much).

Among the integrals below, select all of the improper ones and none of the proper ones.

• \displaystyle \int_{\theta=-\pi/4}^{\pi/4} \sec \theta \, d\theta∫θ=−π/4π/4​secθdθ
• \displaystyle \int_{x=0}^1 \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x} – 10}∫x=01​x​−10dx​

Q2. Consider the integral

\int_{x=0}^1 \frac{e^{-x}}{x} \, dx∫x=01​xe−x​dx

It is improper because its integrand blows up at x=0x=0. Using your knowledge of Taylor series, determine the leading order behavior of the integrand near x=0x=0 and decide whether the integral converges or diverges.

Note: observe that you do not need to find an antiderivative in order to determine whether an improper integral converges or diverges!

• \displaystyle \frac{e^{-x}}{x} = 1 + O(x)xe−x​=1+O(x), so the integral converges.
• \displaystyle \frac{e^{-x}}{x} = 1 + O(x)xe−x​=1+O(x), so the integral diverges.
• \displaystyle \frac{e^{-x}}{x} = e^{-x} + O(xe^{-x})xe−x​=e−x+O(xe−x), so the integral converges.
• \displaystyle \frac{e^{-x}}{x} = \frac{1}{x} + O(1)xe−x​=x1​+O(1), so the integral diverges.
• \displaystyle \frac{e^{-x}}{x} = \frac{1}{x} + O(1)xe−x​=x1​+O(1), so the integral converges.
• \displaystyle \frac{e^{-x}}{x} = e^{-x} + O(xe^{-x})xe−x​=e−x+O(xe−x), so the integral diverges.

Q3. By analyzing the leading order behavior of the integrand near x=0x=0, decide whether the following integral converges or diverges.

• \displaystyle \frac{\cos^2 x}{\sqrt{x}} = 1 + O(x^4)x​cos2x​=1+O(x4), so the integral diverges.
• \displaystyle \frac{\cos^2 x}{\sqrt{x}} = \sqrt{x} + O(x^{3/2})x​cos2x​=x​+O(x3/2), so the integral converges.
• \displaystyle \frac{\cos^2 x}{\sqrt{x}} = 1 + O(x^{4})x​cos2x​=1+O(x4), so the integral converges.
• \displaystyle \frac{\cos^2 x}{\sqrt{x}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}} + O(x^{3/2})x​cos2x​=x​1​+O(x3/2), so the integral converges.
• \displaystyle \frac{\cos^2 x}{\sqrt{x}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}} + O(x^{3/2})x​cos2x​=x​1​+O(x3/2), so the integral diverges.

Q7. Does the integral converge or diverge? \int_{x=1}^{+\infty} \frac{1-5^{-x}}{x} \, dx∫x=1+∞​x1−5−x​dx

• The leading order term in the integrand as x \to +\inftyx→+∞ is 5^{-x}5−x, so the integral converges.

Practice Quiz 01

Q1`. Look at the following integral:

\int_{x=1}^{+\infty} \frac{1}{\sqrt{x^3 -1} } \, dx∫x=1+∞​x3−1​1​dx

The integrand blows up at x=1x=1, and so it is an improper integral. But it is also improper because the domain of integration is unbounded!

Analyze the behavior of the integrand both near x=1x=1 and as x \to +\inftyx→+∞ to decide whether the integral converges or diverges. From the statements below, choose all the correct ones and none of the incorrect ones.

• The integral diverges.
• The integral converges.
• Near x=1x=1, the integrand is \displaystyle \frac{1}{\sqrt{3(x-1)}} + O\left(\sqrt{x-1}\right)3(x−1)​1​+O(x−1​).
• As x \to +\inftyx→+∞, the integrand is \displaystyle \frac{1}{x^{3/2}} + O\left(\frac{1}{x^{9/2}}\right)x3/21​+O(x9/21​).
• As x \to +\inftyx→+∞, the integrand is \displaystyle \frac{1}{x^{1/3}} + O(x^{2/3})x1/31​+O(x2/3).
• Near x=1x=1, the integrand is \displaystyle \frac{1}{(x-1)^{3/2}} + O\left(\frac{1}{(x-1)^{1/2}}\right)(x−1)3/21​+O((x−1)1/21​).

Q2. Consider the following two integrals:

I_1 = \int_{x=2}^{+\infty} \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x^3 – 8}}, \qquad I_2 = \int_{x=2}^{+\infty} \frac{1}{\sqrt{(x-2)^3}} \, dxI1​=∫x=2+∞​x3−8​dx​,I2​=∫x=2+∞​(x−2)3​1​dx

They look very much alike. In fact, both of their integrands blow up at x=2x=2, and the domain of integration —the same one in both cases— is unbounded. But which of the following statements is true?

• Both I_1I1​ and I_2I2​ diverge.
• Both I_1I1​ and I_2I2​ converge.
• I_2I2​ converges, but I_1I1​ diverges.
• I_1I1​ converges, but I_2I2​ diverges.

Q3. Until now we have used asymptotic analysis to relate an improper integral to a pp-integral. But sometimes the leading order term is not a power of xx…

Identify the leading order term as x \to +\inftyx→+∞ of the integrand of

\int_{x=1}^{+\infty} \frac{1}{\sinh x} \, dx∫x=1+∞​sinhx1​dx

Use this information to decide whether it converges or diverges.

• \displaystyle \frac{1}{\sinh x} = \frac{e^{-x}}{x} + O(xe^{-x})sinhx1​=xe−x​+O(xe−x), so the integral diverges.
• \displaystyle \frac{1}{\sinh x} = \frac{e^{-x}}{x} + O(xe^{-x})sinhx1​=xe−x​+O(xe−x), so the integral converges.
• \displaystyle \frac{1}{\sinh x} = e^x + O(e^{3x})sinhx1​=ex+O(e3x), so the integral converges.
• \displaystyle \frac{1}{\sinh x} = e^x + O(e^{3x})sinhx1​=ex+O(e3x), so the integral diverges.
• \displaystyle \frac{1}{\sinh x} = 2e^{-x} + O(e^{-3x})sinhx1​=2e−x+O(e−3x), so the integral converges.
• \displaystyle \frac{1}{\sinh x} = 2e^{-x} + O(e^{-3x})sinhx1​=2e−x+O(e−3x), so the integral diverges.

Q4. For p \geq 0p≥0 an integer, consider the following integral:I_p = \int_{x=1}^{+\infty} \frac{dx}{\ln^p x}Ip​=∫x=1+∞​lnpxdx​ Which of the following statements is true?

Two hints:

1. Think about the growth of \ln^p xlnpx as x \to +\inftyx→+∞. Can you compare it to the growth of x^qxq for some value of qq ?
2. Recall from Lecture 25 that if g(x) \geq f(x)g(x)≥f(x) for every x \in [a,b]x∈[a,b], then\int_{x=a}^b g(x) \,dx \geq \int_{x=a}^b f(x) \,dx∫x=ab​g(x)dx≥∫x=ab​f(x)dx This is also true if the domain of integration is unbounded! Now, from the comparison between the orders of growth above, what can you deduce?

• I_pIp​ converges for any value of pp.
• I_pIp​ converges for p \gt 1p>1 and diverges for p \leq 1p≤1.
• I_pIp​ converges for p \leq 1p≤1 and diverges for p \gt 1p>1.
• I_pIp​ diverges for any value of pp.
• I_pIp​ converges for p \geq 1p≥1 and diverges for p=0p=0.

Q5. We have alluded to the fact that the integral of e^{-t^2}e−t2 is difficult. Let’s say I told you that

\int_{0}^\infty e^{-t^2}dt = \frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2} .∫0∞​e−t2dt=2π​​.

Use this fact to compute \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)!(−21​)! (that is, negative one-half, factorial).

Hint: use the \GammaΓ-function and a substitution.

• \displaystyle\frac{\pi}{2}2π​
• \pi^2π2
• \displaystyle\frac{\pi^2}{2}2π2​
• \piπ

More About This Course

Calculus is one of the greatest things that people have thought of. It helps us understand everything from the orbits of planets to the best size for a city to how often a heart beats. This quick course covers the main ideas of Calculus with one variable, with a focus on understanding the ideas and how to use them. This course is perfect for students who are just starting out in engineering, the physical sciences, or the social sciences.

The course is different because:

1) Taylor series and approximations are introduced and used from the start;
2) a new way of combining discrete and continuous forms of calculus is used;
3) the emphasis is on the ideas rather than the calculations; and
4) the course is taught in a clear, dynamic, and unified way.

SKILLS YOU WILL GAIN

• Differential Equations
• Integration By Parts
• Improper Integral
• Integration By Substitution
