For a function $ f(x) \equal{} 6x(1 \minus{} x)$, suppose that positive constant $ c$ and a linear function $ g(x) \equal{} ax \plus{} b\ (a,\ b: \text{constants}\,\ a > 0)$ satisfy the following 3 conditions: $ c^2\int_0^1 f(x)\ dx \equal{} 1,\ \int_0^1 f(x)\{g(x)\}^2\ dx \equal{} 1,\ \int_0^1 f(x)g(x)\ dx \equal{} 0$. Answer the following questions. (1) Find the constants $ a,\ b,\ c$. (2) For natural number $ n$, let $ I_n \equal{} \int_0^1 x^ne^x\ dx$. Express $ I_{n \plus{} 1}$ in terms of $ I_n$. Then evaluate $ I_1,\ I_2,\ I_3$. (3) Evaluate the definite integrals $ \int_0^1 e^xf(x)\ dx$ and $ \int_0^1 e^xf(x)g(x)\ dx$. (4) For real numbers $ s,\ t$, define $ J \equal{} \int_0^1 \{e^x \minus{} cs \minus{} tg(x)\}^2\ dx$. Find the constants $ A,\ B,\ C,\ D,\ E$ by setting $ J \equal{} As^2 \plus{} Bst \plus{} Ct^2 \plus{} Ds\plus{}Et \plus{} F$. (You don't need to find the constant $ F$). (5) Find the values of $ s,\ t$ for which $ J$ is minimal.

Let $ a$ be a positive real number, in Euclidean space, consider the two disks: $ D_1\equal{}\{(x,\ y,\ z)| x^2\plus{}y^2\leq 1,\ z\equal{}a\}$, $ D_2\equal{}\{(x,\ y,\ z)| x^2\plus{}y^2\leq 1,\ z\equal{}\minus{}a\}$. Let $ D_1$ overlap to $ D_2$ by rotating $ D_1$ about the $ y$ axis by $ 180^\circ$. Note that the rotational direction is supposed to be the direction such that we would lean the postive part of the $ z$ axis to into the direction of the postive part of $ x$ axis. Let denote $ E$ the part in which $ D_1$ passes while the rotation, let denote $ V(a)$ the volume of $ E$ and let $ W(a)$ be the volume of common part of $ E$ and $ \{(x,\ y,\ z)|x\geq 0\}$.
