7.E: Integration (Exercises)

( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)

These are homework exercises to accompany David Guichard's "General Calculus" Textmap. Complementary General calculus exercises can be found for other Textmaps and can be accessed here.

7.1: Two Examples

Ex 7.1.1Suppose an object moves in a straight line so that its speed at time $t$ is given by $v(t)=2t+2$, and that at $t=1$ the object is at position 5. Find the position of the object at $t=2$. (answer)

Ex 7.1.2Suppose an object moves in a straight line so that its speed at time $t$ is given by $\ds v(t)=t^2+2$, and that at $t=0$ the object is at position 5. Find the position of the object at $t=2$. (answer)

Ex 7.1.3By a method similar to that in example 7.1.2, find the area under $y=2x$ between $x=0$ and any positive value for $x$. (answer)

Ex 7.1.4By a method similar to that in example 7.1.2, find the area under $y=4x$ between $x=0$ and any positive value for $x$. (answer)

Ex 7.1.5By a method similar to that in example 7.1.2, find the area under $y=4x$ between $x=2$ and any positive value for $x$ bigger than 2. (answer)

Ex 7.1.6By a method similar to that in example 7.1.2, find the area under $y=4x$ between any two positive values for $x$, say $a < b$. (answer)

Ex 7.1.7Let $\ds f(x)=x^2+3x+2$. Approximate the area under the curve between $x=0$ and $x=2$ using 4 rectangles and also using 8 rectangles. (answer)

Ex 7.1.8Let $\ds f(x)=x^2-2x+3$. Approximate the area under the curve between $x=1$ and $x=3$ using 4 rectangles. (answer)

7.3: Some Properties of Integrals

Ex 7.3.1An object moves so that its velocity at time $t$ is $v(t)=-9.8t+20$ m/s. Describe the motion of the object between $t=0$ and $t=5$, find the total distance traveled by the object during that time, and find the net distance traveled. (answer)

Ex 7.3.2An object moves so that its velocity at time $t$ is $v(t)=\sin t$. Set up and evaluate a single definite integral to compute the net distance traveled between $t=0$ and $t=2\pi$. (answer)

Ex 7.3.3An object moves so that its velocity at time $t$ is $v(t)=1+2\sin t$ m/s. Find the net distance traveled by the object between $t=0$ and $t=2\pi$, and find the total distance traveled during the same period. (answer)

Ex 7.3.4Consider the function $f(x)=(x+2)(x+1)(x-1)(x-2)$ on $[-2,2]$. Find the total area between the curve and the $x$-axis (measuring all area as positive). (answer)

Ex 7.3.5Consider the function $\ds f(x)=x^2-3x+2$ on $[0,4]$. Find the total area between the curve and the $x$-axis (measuring all area as positive). (answer)

Ex 7.3.6Evaluate the three integrals: A=30(x2+9)dxB=40(x2+9)dxC=34(x2+9)dx, and verify that $A=B+C$. (answer)
