How to integrate this?
Evaluate limx→0∫x0(x−t)sint2 dtxsin3x.
I've had difficulty in using L'Hopital rule. At the same time failed to really understand how to differentiate or evaluate the limit of the x\sin^3x and \int_0^x(x-t)\sin t^2\ dt
Would like to appreciate your help
Answer
Use repeatedly \sin u=u\,{\rm sinc}(u), whereby \lim_{u\to0}{\rm sinc}(u)={\rm sinc}(0)=1. We have \int_0^x (x-t)\sin(t^2)\>dt=x^4\int_0^1(1-\tau)\,\tau^2{\rm sinc}(x^2\tau^2)\>d\tau and \>x\sin^3 x=x^4\>{\rm sinc}^3(x)\ , so that {\int_0^x (x-t)\sin(t^2)\>dt \over x\sin^3 x}={\int_0^1(1-\tau)\,\tau^2\bigl(1+r(x,\tau)\bigr)\>d\tau\over 1+\bar r(x)}\ , whereby \lim_{x\to0}r(x,\tau)=0 uniformly in \tau, and \lim_{x\to0}\bar r(x)=0 as well. It follows that the limit in question is \int_0^1(1-\tau)\,\tau^2\>d\tau={1\over12}\ .
