Math Problem Statement

Evaluate the integral by reversing the order of integration.

Solution

To solve these problems, we must reverse the order of integration for each given double integral. Let’s tackle them one by one.


Problem (1)

01x1ysin(y)dydx.\int_0^1 \int_{x}^1 \sqrt{y} \sin(y) \, dy \, dx.

Step 1: Understand the current limits

The integration order is dydy first and dxdx second. For yy, the limits are xy1x \leq y \leq 1, and for xx, the limits are 0x10 \leq x \leq 1.

Step 2: Reverse the order of integration

To reverse, we determine the bounds:

  • For xx, the region is described by 0xy0 \leq x \leq y (as xyx \leq y from the original inner limit).
  • For yy, the region is 0y10 \leq y \leq 1.

Rewriting the integral: 010yysin(y)dxdy.\int_0^1 \int_0^y \sqrt{y} \sin(y) \, dx \, dy.

Step 3: Evaluate the inner integral

The inner integral with respect to xx is: 0yysin(y)dx=ysin(y)0y1dx=ysin(y)y.\int_0^y \sqrt{y} \sin(y) \, dx = \sqrt{y} \sin(y) \cdot \int_0^y 1 \, dx = \sqrt{y} \sin(y) \cdot y.

So the integral becomes: 01yysin(y)dy.\int_0^1 y \sqrt{y} \sin(y) \, dy.

Simplify yy=y3/2y \sqrt{y} = y^{3/2}, so: 01y3/2sin(y)dy.\int_0^1 y^{3/2} \sin(y) \, dy.

This integral can now be solved using integration by parts or numerical methods if needed.


Problem (2)

01x1y3+1dydx.\int_0^1 \int_{\sqrt{x}}^1 \sqrt{y^3 + 1} \, dy \, dx.

Step 1: Understand the current limits

For yy, the limits are xy1\sqrt{x} \leq y \leq 1, and for xx, the limits are 0x10 \leq x \leq 1.

Step 2: Reverse the order of integration

  • For xx, since yxy \geq \sqrt{x}, we have 0xy20 \leq x \leq y^2.
  • For yy, the region is 0y10 \leq y \leq 1.

Rewriting the integral: 010y2y3+1dxdy.\int_0^1 \int_0^{y^2} \sqrt{y^3 + 1} \, dx \, dy.

Step 3: Evaluate the inner integral

The inner integral with respect to xx is: 0y2y3+1dx=y3+10y21dx=y3+1y2.\int_0^{y^2} \sqrt{y^3 + 1} \, dx = \sqrt{y^3 + 1} \cdot \int_0^{y^2} 1 \, dx = \sqrt{y^3 + 1} \cdot y^2.

The integral becomes: 01y2y3+1dy.\int_0^1 y^2 \sqrt{y^3 + 1} \, dy.

This integral can be solved using substitution methods.


Problem (3)

082x/π2ex4dxdy.\int_0^8 \int_{2\sqrt{x/\pi}}^2 e^{x^4} \, dx \, dy.

Step 1: Understand the current limits

For xx, the limits are 2xπy22\sqrt{\frac{x}{\pi}} \leq y \leq 2, and for yy, the limits are 0x80 \leq x \leq 8.

Step 2: Reverse the order of integration

For yy, since y2y \leq 2 and y2xπy \geq 2\sqrt{\frac{x}{\pi}}, rearranging gives xπy24x \leq \frac{\pi y^2}{4}.

So:

  • For xx, the region is 0x80 \leq x \leq 8.
  • For yy, the region is 0y20 \leq y \leq 2.

Rewriting the integral: 020πy2/4ex4dxdy.\int_0^2 \int_0^{\pi y^2/4} e^{x^4} \, dx \, dy.

Step 3: Evaluate the inner integral

The inner integral with respect to xx is not elementary: 0πy2/4ex4dx.\int_0^{\pi y^2/4} e^{x^4} \, dx.

This can be evaluated numerically, but the limits have been successfully reversed.
