Math 31b : Midterm 2, Spring 2011
Professor Antieau
Each problem is worth 10 points.
1. Find the limits of the following sequences (and justify your answers carefully):
(a) an= (sin n)/√n;
(b) bn=nsin(1/n).
2. Compute, using the method for surface area of a solid of revolution, the surface area
of a sphere of radius R.
3. Compute the indefinite integral
Zx+ 7
x2(x+ 2) dx.
4. Find an interval [a, b] containing 0 such that if xis in [a, b], the error of the 5th Taylor
polynomial for f(x) = ex(with a= 0) is less than or equal to 10−18.
5. Compute the value of ln 2 to an error of at most 10−3. You should use Taylor polyno-
mials, but you do not have to actually simplify the final approximation Tn(2).
