Chain rule when applying L'Hopital's rule












2












$begingroup$


I have a very basic question regarding derivation function:



$$f(omega(t)) = frac{2 +x(t)cdot frac{domega(t)}{dt}}{omega(t)} $$
when I check for
$$= lim_{omega(t)to 0}frac{2 +x(t)cdotfrac{domega(t)}{dt}}{omega(t)} = frac{2}{0} $$
now if we apply L'Hopital's rule
we get



$$= lim_{omega(t)to 0}(frac{frac{d(2)}{domega(t)} +[frac{d(x(t))}{domega(t)}cdot frac{domega(t)}{dt} + frac{d(frac{omega(t)}{dt})}{domega(t)}cdot frac{dx(t)}{dt}]}{frac{domega(t)}{domega(t)}} )$$
So here is my question this
$$ frac{d(x(t))}{domega(t)}cdot frac{domega(t)}{dt}$$
should become
$$ frac{dx(t)}{dt}$$
according to the chain rule , or am I mathematically wrong.

Please also let me know if I have done something mathematically wrong during the derivation.

    I don't think L'Hospitals is applicable because 2/0 is not indeterminate form.

Recall we can apply l'Hopital for expressions $frac{f(x)}{g(x)}$ in the form $frac{infty}{infty}$ or $frac{0}{0}$ or also, as an extension, for the case $f(x)^{g(x)}=e^{g(x)log(f(x))}$ when $g(x)log(f(x))$ is in the indeterminate form $frac{infty}{infty}$ or $frac{0}{0}$.



Note also that for the $frac{infty}{infty}$ case it is not strictly necessary that the numerator approaches $infty$ to apply l'Hopital, indeed the numerator need not even have a limit provided that the other conditions hold and the denominator approaches $infty$. Refer to this wiki article for a discussion on that.



With reference to your main doubt we have



$$frac{d(x(t))}{domega(t)}=frac{d(x(t))}{dt}frac{dt}{domega(t)}=frac{frac{d(x(t))}{dt}}{frac{domega(t)}{dt}}$$



and therefore



$$frac{d(x(t))}{domega(t)}cdot frac{domega(t)}{dt}=frac{d(x(t))}{dt}$$
