Definite integrals by hand and with the calculator Problem set B
Show each step of the working. Use the calculator only where the question says so, and give decimal answers to 3 significant figures.
Each question matches the question with the same number in set A. Do the ones you got wrong there.

In context
-
A factory pipe releases dye into a river at a rate of \(c(t) = 14e^{-t^2/6}\) grams per second, where t is the time in seconds after a valve is opened. Use your calculator to find how much dye is released in the first 4 seconds. Give your answer to 3 significant figures.
-
A drone climbs from a standstill. Its speed is \(v = 3t^{2/3}\) m/s, where t is the time in seconds after take-off. Find the distance it travels in the first 8 seconds.
-
A video is going viral. The number of views is increasing at the rate \(V'(t) = 4e^{t}\) thousand views per day, where t is the time in days. Find the number of views added between \(t = 0\) and \(t = \ln 7\).
Stretch
-
Given that \(\int_1^k \frac{3}{x}\,dx = \ln 64\) and \(k > 1\), find the exact value of k.
-
Find the exact value of \(\int_{1}^{8} \left(x^{\frac{1}{3}} + \frac{4}{x}\right)dx\), then give it to 3 significant figures.
