Question
Let \(y = {{\text{e}}^x}\sin x\).
Consider the function \(f\) defined by \(f(x) = {{\text{e}}^x}\sin x,{\text{ }}0 \leqslant x \leqslant \pi \).
The curvature at any point \((x,{\text{ }}y)\) on a graph is defined as \(\kappa = \frac{{\left| {\frac{{{{\text{d}}^2}y}}{{{\text{d}}{x^2}}}} \right|}}{{{{\left( {1 + {{\left( {\frac{{{\text{d}}y}}{{{\text{d}}x}}} \right)}^2}} \right)}^{\frac{3}{2}}}}}\).
Find an expression for \(\frac{{{\text{d}}y}}{{{\text{d}}x}}\).
Show that \(\frac{{{{\text{d}}^2}y}}{{{\text{d}}{x^2}}} = 2{{\text{e}}^x}\cos x\).
Show that the function \(f\) has a local maximum value when \(x = \frac{{3\pi }}{4}\).
Find the \(x\)-coordinate of the point of inflexion of the graph of \(f\).
Sketch the graph of \(f\), clearly indicating the position of the local maximum point, the point of inflexion and the axes intercepts.
Find the area of the region enclosed by the graph of \(f\) and the \(x\)-axis.
The curvature at any point \((x,{\text{ }}y)\) on a graph is defined as \(\kappa = \frac{{\left| {\frac{{{{\text{d}}^2}y}}{{{\text{d}}{x^2}}}} \right|}}{{{{\left( {1 + {{\left( {\frac{{{\text{d}}y}}{{{\text{d}}x}}} \right)}^2}} \right)}^{\frac{3}{2}}}}}\).
Find the value of the curvature of the graph of \(f\) at the local maximum point.
Find the value \(\kappa \) for \(x = \frac{\pi }{2}\) and comment on its meaning with respect to the shape of the graph.
