Find the critical numbers of U=U(t)
Determine the intervals on which U is increasing and on which it is decreasing.
Find the local extrema of U.
U=U(t)=(5cos(2t/pi))/(2+sin2t/pi)+6
recall that critical numbers are where U'=0 or is undefined.
U is increasing where U' > 0
Now, since
U'(t) = -10/pi * (2sin(2t/pi)+1)/(sin(2t/pi)+2)^2
U'=0 when 2sin(2t/pi)+1 = 0
and since the denominator is always positive, U' is never undefined.
And, of course, U' > 0 when 2sin(2t/pi)+1 < 0
To find the critical numbers of U=U(t), we need to find the values of t where the derivative of U(t) equals zero or is undefined.
1. First, let's find the derivative of U(t). We can use the quotient rule to differentiate U(t).
U'(t) = [ (5(2pi)(-sin(2t/pi))(2 + sin(2t/pi)) ) - ( (5cos(2t/pi))(2cos(2t/pi))(2pi)) ] / (2+sin(2t/pi))^2
Simplifying further, we get:
U'(t) = [ -10πsin(2t/π)(2 + sin(2t/π)) - 10πcos²(2t/π) ] / (2+sin(2t/π))^2
2. Next, we set U'(t) equal to zero and solve for t to find the critical numbers. We can ignore the denominator since it can never be zero.
-10πsin(2t/π)(2 + sin(2t/π)) - 10πcos²(2t/π) = 0
To solve this equation, we can use the trigonometric identity sin²θ + cos²θ = 1 to substitute cos²(2t/π) = 1 - sin²(2t/π).
-10πsin(2t/π)(2 + sin(2t/π)) - 10π(1 - sin²(2t/π)) = 0
Simplifying further,
-10πsin(2t/π)(2 + sin(2t/π)) - 10π + 10πsin²(2t/π) = 0
Combine like terms and factor out -10πsin(2t/π),
-10π[ sin(2t/π)(2 + sin(2t/π)) - 1 + sin²(2t/π) ] = 0
Setting each factor equal to zero,
sin(2t/π)(2 + sin(2t/π)) - 1 + sin²(2t/π) = 0
sin(2t/π)(2 + sin(2t/π)) + sin²(2t/π) = 1
Unfortunately, this equation is not easy to solve algebraically. We can use numerical methods, such as graphing or using a calculator, to approximate the critical numbers.
To determine the intervals on which U is increasing or decreasing, we can use the first derivative test. We need to examine the sign of U'(t) in different intervals.
To find the local extrema of U, we need to determine the values of t where U has local maximum or minimum points. We can use the second derivative test by examining the sign of U''(t) at critical points. However, finding U''(t) requires taking the derivative of the expression we derived for U'(t), which can be tedious.
Alternatively, we can use the graphing method or a calculator to visualize the graph of U(t) and identify the local extrema.
Please note that due to the complexity of the equation for U(t), finding the exact critical numbers, intervals of increase/decrease, and local extrema might be challenging.
