    maxima / minima

    17) The volume of a cylinder is V = pi*r2*h Now we are told the volume is 400cm3 So V = pi*r2h = 400cm3 Now make h the subject pi*r2h = 400 h = 400/(pi*r2) Surface area of a cylinder is A = 2*pi*r(r+h) So sub in h as the above expression. A = 2*pi*r(r+400/(pi*r2) = 2pi*r2+800/r...

    maxima / minima

    a) 2x+2y = 30, letting the length be x and width be y. y = (30-2x)/2 = 15-x Area of rectangle = length*width = xy = x(15-x) = 15x-x2 A = 15x-x2 dA/dx = 15-2x dA/dx = 0 for stationary points 15-2x = 0 x = 7.5 d2A/dx2 = -2 < 0 thus negative concavity so maximum turning point =...

    maxima / minima

    15. Let the radius of the semi-cirlce be x and the length of rectangle be y. Perimeter = pi*2x/2 (semi-circle, circumference = pi*diameter = pi*2x) + 2y (lengths of rectangle) + 2x (other side of rectangle which happens to be the diameter of the circle) So P = pi*x + 2y + 2x = 4m (given to...

    Help!! Chemical properties of radioisotope.

    The board of studies use "chemical properties" in this context to mean half life, type of radiation emitted etc. It is used incorrectly though since chemical properties actually means the ways in which atoms interact via electron transfer, sharing etc rather than the way the 'nucleus' changes.

    The AND and OR of probability

    I haven't done probability yet but I suggest using the principle AND = multiply, OR = add.

    The Butterfly Effect

    Thank you. I will consider having this one up my sleeve if need be. :) The trouble is I am already doing Summer Heights High so I would be doubling up the visual/film medium.

    As I continue to embrace the thought of the girl's beautiful trumpet tune and fall off to sleep many people go outside for a night on the town. I call them ghosts awakening from hibernation i.e. their daytime slumber/work etc. That make sense? Basically a fancy way of saying that people go...
