We are given the first derivative
To find the antiderivative, we must think of functions whose derivative is sin x. That happens when we have f(x) = cos u. Recall:
So we can assume that:
So we know that u must be 17.5t, which gives us u' = 17.5. Therefore there must be a multiplier before u' for us to get -210.
So, the antiderivative must be:
Let's check:-
To find the value of c, we will use i(0) = 0.
The complete equation for i(t) is:
Using the equation we found for 1(t), we can calculate i(5).
The current when t = 5 is 1.98 amperes.
To find the time when the current is zero again, we substitute once more.
The next time that current is zero again is at t = 0.359 seconds.
The rate of change of di/dt when t = 0.5 is equal to its derivative (the second derivative of the original function).
The rate of change of di/dt at t = 0.5 is 3,632 amps/second^2.
