ADDITIONAL APPLICATIONS OF THE
DEFINITE INTEGRAL
The strategy of getting a grip on something by partitioning, approximating, summing and computing a limit is applicable in a variety of situations If we arrive at the limit of a Riemann sum, then we can solve the problem using a definite integral In this section we apply this strategy to the problems of computing the length of a plane curve, computing the work done
by a variable force acting on an object, and computing the pressure exerted by a fluid
Arc Length
Not only is the definite integral useful in computing areas and volumes, but it is a tool for computing arc length as well

Example 28.6 was carefully chosen to give a straightforward integral Usually the integrals obtained are not easy to evaluate exactly Numerical methods together with a calculator or computer allow us to approximate them
Work
How much work is needed to pump all the water out of a swimming pool? How much work
is needed to compress a heavy spring? How much work is needed to launch a rocket? In order to make such calculations we need to clarify the meaning of work from the framework
of a physicist
If a constant force F acting in the direction of motion of an object causes a displacement
d, then the work done by the force on the object is defined to be
work = force · displacement
W = F · d.
Notice that the physicists’ definition of work differs from our colloquial use of the word For example, if you wait at a bus stop for 15 minutes while holding your 25-pound nephew, you might feel tired but according to the physicist you’ve done no work Your nephew hasn’t moved And if you give up on the bus and walk to the grocery store, carrying your nephew the whole way, your arms have still not done any work Your arms have exerted upward force on your nephew; his motion, however, has been horizontal Even worse, if you get tired and set him down after a few minutes, you’ve done negative work If you lift him from his position around your waist to a perch on your shoulders, you and the physicist both
Trang 8868 CHAPTER 28 More Applications of Integration
agree that you have done some work If your shoulder is 1.5 feet above your waist, you’ve done 1.5 feet× 25 pounds = 37.5 foot-pounds of work
Units of Measure Because work equals force times distance, in the English system it
can be measured in foot-pounds, as above Scientists generally measure force in newtons,4 abbreviated N A newton-meter is called a joule To obtain newtons from kilograms (a unit
of mass), apply Newton’s second law:
force = mass · acceleration
= m · g,
where g is the acceleration due to gravity Near the surface of the earth g is approximately
9.8 m/sec2
If a constant force is acting in the direction of motion, calculating work simply amounts
to a multiplication problem Consider a variable force acting in a straight line over a fixed distance For example, consider compressing a spring The applied force must increase
as the spring becomes more compressed Situate the x-axis so that the force is applied along it from x = a to x = b Let F (x) be a continuous function giving the force applied at
position x To calculate the work done we partition [a, b] into n equal pieces, each of length
x=b −a
n and let xi = a + ix for i = 0, 1, , n On each subinterval we treat the force
as approximately constant This is reasonable because F is continuous.

Let’s return to the spring problem Hooke’s law, an experimentally derived law, says
that the force necessary to compress or stretch a spring x units from its natural length is proportional to x.
where k is called the spring constant Hooke’s law is followed provided the elastic limit of
the spring is not exceeded Example 28.8 applies this law
Natural length x Compressed spring

(b) reduce the water level to 0.7 m?
Think of pumping the water out one disk at a time We’ll calculate the work done to lift the
