    anyone good with mathematica????

    i'm trying to integrate this for physics homework...and admittedly i'm VERY rusty with mathemtica and when i put it in all i get is the whole thing spit back at me.....
    a = .529*10^-10

    f[x_] := (1/2 a)^(3/2)*(2 - (x/a)) exp[(-x/2 a)]

    n[integrate[(f[x_]^2*(x^2)), {x, 0, 4 a}]]


    anyone know mathematica well???

    You know that Indian trekkie girl I recommended to you? Not sure if she'll cook or clean for you, but I'm prety sure she can do that problem by hand. Maybe you should give her a shot!
