You are given the matrix \(\mathbf { A } = \left( \begin{array} { c c c } 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & - 1 & 0 \end{array} \right)\).
  1. Find \(\mathbf { A } ^ { 4 }\).
  2. Describe the transformation that A represents. The matrix \(\mathbf { B }\) represents a reflection in the plane \(x = 0\).
  3. Write down the matrix \(B\). The point \(P\) has coordinates \(( 2,3,4 )\). The point \(P ^ { \prime }\) is the image of \(P\) under the transformation represented by \(\mathbf { B }\).
  4. Find the coordinates of \(P ^ { \prime }\).

  1. Using exponentials, show that \(\cosh 2 u \equiv 2 \sinh ^ { 2 } u + 1\).
  2. By differentiating both sides of the identity in part (a) with respect to \(u\), show that \(\sinh 2 u \equiv 2 \sinh u \cosh u\).
  3. Use the substitution \(x = \sinh ^ { 2 } u\) to find \(\int \sqrt { \frac { x } { x + 1 } } \mathrm {~d} x\). Give your answer in the form \(a \sinh ^ { - 1 } b \sqrt { x } + \mathrm { f } ( x )\) where \(a\) and \(b\) are integers and \(\mathrm { f } ( x )\) is a function to be determined.
  4. Hence determine the exact area of the region between the curve \(y = \sqrt { \frac { x } { x + 1 } }\), the \(x\)-axis, the line \(x = 1\) and the line \(x = 2\). Give your answer in the form \(p + q \ln r\) where \(p , q\) and \(r\) are numbers to be determined.
Question 4 13 marks

4 A particle of mass 0.5 kg is initially at point \(O\). It moves from rest along the \(x\)-axis under the influence of two forces \(F _ { 1 } \mathrm {~N}\) and \(F _ { 2 } \mathrm {~N}\) which act parallel to the \(x\)-axis. At time \(t\) seconds the velocity of the particle is \(v \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\). \(F _ { 1 }\) is acting in the direction of motion of the particle and \(F _ { 2 }\) is resisting motion.
In an initial model
  • \(F _ { 1 }\) is proportional to \(t\) with constant of proportionality \(\lambda > 0\),
  • \(F _ { 2 }\) is proportional to \(v\) with constant of proportionality \(\mu > 0\).
    1. Show that the motion of the particle can be modelled by the following differential equation.
$$\frac { 1 \mathrm {~d} v } { 2 \mathrm {~d} t } = \lambda t - \mu v$$
  • Solve the differential equation in part (a), giving the particular solution for \(v\) in terms of \(t\), \(\lambda\) and \(\mu\). You are now given that \(\lambda = 2\) and \(\mu = 1\).
  • Find a formula for an approximation for \(v\) in terms of \(t\) when \(t\) is large. In a refined model

    Show that \(\int _ { 0 } ^ { \frac { 1 } { \sqrt { 3 } } } \frac { 4 } { 1 - x ^ { 4 } } \mathrm {~d} x = \ln ( a + \sqrt { b } ) + \frac { \pi } { c }\) where \(a , b\) and \(c\) are integers to be determined.
