To find the point of maximum curvature for the function $y = 5 \ln(x)$, we need to calculate the curvature $\kappa$ of the curve and find where it is maximized.

The curvature $\kappa$ of a curve defined by $y = f(x)$ is given by:

$\kappa = \frac{|f''(x)|}{(1 + (f'(x))^2)^{3/2}}$

Step 1: First and Second Derivatives

For $y = 5 \ln(x)$, we need to find $f'(x)$ and $f''(x)$:

1. First derivative: $f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(5 \ln(x)) = \frac{5}{x}$

2. Second derivative: $f''(x) = \frac{d}{dx}\left(\frac{5}{x}\right) = -\frac{5}{x^2}$

Step 2: Curvature Formula

Substitute $f'(x)$ and $f''(x)$ into the curvature formula:

$\kappa = \frac{\left| -\frac{5}{x^2} \right|}{\left(1 + \left(\frac{5}{x}\right)^2\right)^{3/2}} = \frac{\frac{5}{x^2}}{\left(1 + \frac{25}{x^2}\right)^{3/2}}$

Step 3: Simplify the Expression

To make this easier to analyze, let’s simplify the denominator:

$\kappa = \frac{5/x^2}{(1 + 25/x^2)^{3/2}}$

Rewrite $1 + \frac{25}{x^2}$ with a common denominator:

$1 + \frac{25}{x^2} = \frac{x^2 + 25}{x^2}$

Thus, we have:

$\kappa = \frac{5/x^2}{\left(\frac{x^2 + 25}{x^2}\right)^{3/2}} = \frac{5}{x^2} \cdot \frac{x^3}{(x^2 + 25)^{3/2}}$

This simplifies to:

$\kappa = \frac{5x}{(x^2 + 25)^{3/2}}$

Step 4: Maximize the Curvature

To find the point of maximum curvature, differentiate $\kappa$ with respect to $x$ and set the derivative equal to zero. Solving this can be complex, so let's proceed by finding critical points or testing values for $x$ to locate the maximum.
