Arc Length of Exponential Functions
Explanation
The arc length of an exponential function involves integrating the square root of the sum of one and the square of its derivative, which can lead to complex expressions.
--- Please note that the asksia-ll calculator results were used for the approximations, and the trapezoidal rule with n=10 n=10 was mentioned for the approximation method. However, the actual trapezoidal rule calculations were not provided in the steps above, as they would require the computation of the function values at the specified points and the application of the trapezoidal rule formula. The error accuracy and the number of ordinates needed for a specific accuracy were not addressed, as they require additional calculations and information not provided in the asksia-ll calculator results.
Volume of Water in a Swimming Pool A rectangular swimming pool is 30ft30 \mathrm{ft} wide and 50ft50 \mathrm{ft} long. The table below shows the depth h(x)h(x) of the water at 5−ft5-\mathrm{ft} intervals from one end of the pool to the other. Estimate the volume of water in the pool using Trapezoidal Rule with n=10n=10, applied to the integral V=∫05030∙h(x)dx.  \mathrm{V}=\int_{0}^{50} 30 \bullet h(x) d x \text {. } \begin{tabular}{cccc} \hline Position (ft) & Depth (ft) & Position(ft) & Depth (ft) \\ x\boldsymbol{x} & h(x)\boldsymbol{h}(\boldsymbol{x}) & x\boldsymbol{x} & h(x)\boldsymbol{h}(\boldsymbol{x}) \\ \hline 0 & 6.0 & 30 & 11.5 \\ 5 & 8.2 & 35 & 11.9 \\ 10 & 9.1 & 40 & 12.3 \\ 15 & 9.9 & 45 & 12.7 \\ 20 & 10.5 & 50 & 13.0 \\ 25 & 11.0 & & \\ \hline \end{tabular}
Solution by Steps
step 1
To estimate the volume of water in the pool using the Trapezoidal Rule, we first need to set up the formula for the rule. The formula for the Trapezoidal Rule with n n intervals is Δx2[f(x0)+2f(x1)+2f(x2)+…+2f(xn−1)+f(xn)] \frac{\Delta x}{2} \left[f(x_0) + 2f(x_1) + 2f(x_2) + \ldots + 2f(x_{n-1}) + f(x_n)\right] , where Δx \Delta x is the width of each interval
step 2
In this case, Δx=5 \Delta x = 5 ft (since the depth is measured at 5-ft intervals), and the function f(x)=h(x) f(x) = h(x) represents the depth of the water at each interval. We multiply the result by the width of the pool, which is 30 ft, to get the volume
step 3
Plugging in the values from the table into the Trapezoidal Rule formula, we get 52[6.0+2(8.2)+2(9.1)+2(9.9)+2(10.5)+2(11.0)+2(11.5)+2(11.9)+2(12.3)+2(12.7)+13.0] \frac{5}{2} \left[6.0 + 2(8.2) + 2(9.1) + 2(9.9) + 2(10.5) + 2(11.0) + 2(11.5) + 2(11.9) + 2(12.3) + 2(12.7) + 13.0\right]
step 4
Simplifying the expression inside the brackets gives us 6.0+16.4+18.2+19.8+21.0+22.0+23.0+23.8+24.6+25.4+13.0 6.0 + 16.4 + 18.2 + 19.8 + 21.0 + 22.0 + 23.0 + 23.8 + 24.6 + 25.4 + 13.0
step 5
Adding up these values gives us 6.0+16.4+18.2+19.8+21.0+22.0+23.0+23.8+24.6+25.4+13.0=203.2 6.0 + 16.4 + 18.2 + 19.8 + 21.0 + 22.0 + 23.0 + 23.8 + 24.6 + 25.4 + 13.0 = 203.2
step 6
Now we multiply by 52 \frac{5}{2} to get 52×203.2=507.0 \frac{5}{2} \times 203.2 = 507.0 cubic feet
step 7
Finally, we multiply by the width of the pool to find the volume: 507.0×30=15210.0 507.0 \times 30 = 15210.0 cubic feet
Answer
The estimated volume of water in the pool is 15210.0 cubic feet.
Key Concept
Trapezoidal Rule for Estimating Integrals
Explanation
The Trapezoidal Rule is a numerical method to approximate the definite integral of a function. It works by approximating the region under the curve as a series of trapezoids, rather than rectangles as in the Riemann sum, and then summing the areas of these trapezoids to estimate the total area under the curve.
