Problem 58

Find the area of the region under the curve \(y=f(x)\) over the interval \([a, b] .\) To do this, divide the interval \([a, b]\) into n equal subintervals, calculate the area of the corresponding circumscribed polygon, and then let \(n \rightarrow \infty .\) (See the example for \(y=x^{2}\) in the text. \()\) $$ y=x^{3}+x ; a=0, b=1 $$

Problem 58

Decide whether the given statement is true or false. Then justify your answer. If \(f(x) \geq 0\) and \(\int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x=0\), then \(f(x)=0\) for all \(x\) in \([a, b]\).

Problem 59

Decide whether the given statement is true or false. Then justify your answer. $$\text { If } \begin{aligned} \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x &>\int_{a}^{b} g(x) d x, \text { then } \\ \int_{a}^{b}[f(x)-g(x)] d x>0 \end{aligned}$$

Problem 59

, use the Substitution Rule for Definite Integrals to evaluate each definite integral. $$ \int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{1+x^{2}} d x $$

Problem 60

, use the Substitution Rule for Definite Integrals to evaluate each definite integral. $$ \int_{-1}^{1} x^{2} \cosh x^{3} d x $$

Problem 60

Decide whether the given statement is true or false. Then justify your answer. If \(f\) and \(g\) are continuous and \(f(x)>g(x)\) for all \(x\) in \([a, b]\), then \(\left|\int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x\right|>\left|\int_{a}^{b} g(x) d x\right| .\)

Problem 61

The velocity of an object is \(v(t)=2-|t-2|\). Assuming that the object is at the origin at time 0, find a formula for its position at time \(t\).

Problem 61

Let \(A_{a}^{b}\) denote the area under the curve \(y=x^{2}\) over the interval \([a, b]\). (a) Prove that \(A_{0}^{b}=b^{3} / 3 .\) Hint \(: \Delta x=b / n\), so \(x_{i}=i b / n ;\) use circumscribed polygons. (b) Show that \(A_{a}^{b}=b^{3} / 3-a^{3} / 3\). Assume that \(a \geq 0\).

Problem 62

Suppose that an object, moving along the \(x\) -axis, has velocity \(v=t^{2}\) meters per second at time \(t\) seconds. How far did it travel between \(t=3\) and \(t=5\) ? See Problem 61 .

Problem 62

The velocity of an object is $$v(t)=\left\\{\begin{array}{ll} 5 & \text { if } 0 \leq t \leq 100 \\ 6-t / 100 & \text { if } 100700 \end{array}\right.$$ (a) Assuming that the object is at the origin at time 0, find a formula for its position at time \(t(t \geq 0)\). (b) What is the farthest to the right of the origin that this object ever gets? (c) When, if ever, does the object return to the origin?
