Hi can you help me plz?
Is it valid to apply newtons law in a rigid body if the forces are not applies in the same spot. (IE: calculating the aceleraion of the center of mass using the sum of forces applied in the body despite not being applied in that point and the masss of the body)
Can you apply this law in a point that is not the ICR (Instantaneous centre of rotation):
sum of Torques=angular aceleration*moment of inertia

>Is it valid to apply newtons law in a rigid body if the forces are not applies in the same spot
Yes. The sum of the forces on a rigid body is equal to the rate of change of linear momentum of the center of mass. [math]
\sum\mathbf{F}=m\mathbf{a}_{cm} [/math]. These forces can be applied to any point on the body.
>Can you apply this law in a point that is not the ICR (Instantaneous centre of rotation):
sum of Torques=angular aceleration*moment of inertia
You have to adjust for possible linear acceleration, but yes. The law becomes [math]
\sum\mathbf{T}=\mathbf{r}_{cm}\times\mathbf{a}_{cm}m+\mathbf{I\alpha} [/math] where the moment of inertia and ang. accel. are both about the center of mass. These torques must all computed from the same reference point, though this reference point doesn't matter.

Ohm's law and Kirchhoff's laws, sweetheart. This is a pretty simple circuit to solve. For each loop, assume there is a clockwise current i1, i2, i3. Because the sum of all currents into a node is zero, you know that the current thru the 3 kΩ is i1-i2, and the current thru the 3.93 kΩ is i2-i3. Now, sum the voltage drops around each loop and set to zero (because of conservation of energy). Recall that over a resistor, V=iR. So, you now have three equations for three unknown currents. Solve the system of equations. You now know the current at any point in the circuit and may find the voltage over whatever two points you like. Refer to a circuits text if you are still confused.

No matter the motion of a rigid body, you will be able to decompose its motion into the superposition (sum) of some purely rotational about the center of mass, and something purely translational. It's not easy in general. That's why you learn about instantaneous centers.
>should i divide a(about cm) projected in the tangent versor to the point of reference by the r(about cm)?

Actually, I've thought about it a bit further.
Your conjecture seems to be equivalent to [math]O^p[/math] containing all elements that don't have order [math]p^k[/math], and [math]G \ O^p[/math] containing all elements that do.
Specifically, assume [math]a[/math] doesn't have order divisible by p. Then [math]O^p ( \langle a \rangle) = \langle a \rangle = O^p(G) \cap \langle a \rangle[/math], which implies [math]a \in O^p(G)[/math]
Similarly, assume [math]a \in G[/math] has order [math]p^k[/math]. Then [math]O^p ( \langle a \rangle ) = \{ e \} = O^p (G) \cap \langle a \rangle[/math]. Then, [math]a \notin O^p (G)[/math].
This all seems insanely strong, so it's probably false.

For the same reason it gets more difficult to distinguish between colors as ambient light decreases. Our eyes are more geared towards perceiving differences between colors rather than their absolute hues. Despite each cone cell belonging to one of 3 types, each of which captures certain chunks of the visible spectrum (usually simplified as being red-, green- and blue-perceiving), these 3 signals, plus one from rod cells, for light intensity, are encoded by neurons in terms of differences between them. Or so it seems, at least. This encoding still hasn't been figured out yet, so this difference system (opponent process theory) is the best model so far. At any rate, your rationale makes some sense because cone cells can perceive intensity too, but the factor which defines which cone type is activated to begin with is the light's frequency, and not its magnitude. By that metric, red is closer to black, so to speak, than to white, as red means activation of some cone cells while black means no activation of any of them, so red on black doesn't pop out as much as red on white.

I have two questions. The first is back in the day did they run tv shows/ads on a set schedule for specific episodes/ads? Like a certain re-run will always be ran the first wednesday of every month for a year?

Secondly, I'm not sure of the exact name, but when you're having a paranoid episode except the thing you're being paranoid about is actually true does your brain fire faster/work better?

Some background on that is that I was in a relationship and I would have these freakouts over little things like noticing extremely small details. I'd freakout and connect a bunch of things together while being absolutely sick to my stomach and find out they were talking to someone else. I only let it happen twice. There's a couple other situations like that, but looking back I felt my brain was on a whole nother level with the things it was noticing and connecting. I'm generally very ditzy.

Uh, no. The main reason that colour perception gets worse in low light is that cones are far less sensitive than rods. In low light, most of our perception is due to rods which don't distinguish colour.

This cannot happen unless the Casimir [math]L^2[/math] is not an integral. Given the configuration space [math]Q[/math] as a homogeneous space under the Euclidean group [math]\mathbb{E}(3)[/math] of rigid body motions, the phase space [math]T^*Q[/math] can be identified with the adjoint Lie algebra [math]\mathfrak{e}^*(3)[/math] with a natural adjoint action of [math]\mathfrak{e}(3)[/math]. The generators of moments [math]p[/math] and angular moments [math]L[/math] span [math]\mathfrak{e}(3)[/math] with integrals [math]p^2,L\cdot p[/math] spanning [math]TS^2 \cong \mathbb{R}^2\times S^2\subset T^*Q[/math], on which the action of [math]\mathbb{E}(3) \cong \mathbb{R}^3 \times_{p^2,L\cdot p \text{ const.}} SO(3)[/math] decomposes. By modding out the translations we have a projection [math]TS^2 \xrightarrow{\pi} S^2[/math] with a distinguished point [math]p_0 \in S^2[/math] fixed by the [math]SO(3)[/math] action. The canonical projection [math]T^*Q\rightarrow Q[/math] then maps [math]p_0[/math] to the CoM.

Pair production is described by the QED scattering amplitude [math]\mathcal{M} = \int_M \operatorname{tr}(\psi^\dagger\not A^{-1}\psi)^2[/math].

[math]\operatorname{tr}\psi^\dagger \not A^{-1}\psi[/math] (or anything involving a trace over an odd number of [math]\gamma[/math]'s) is forbidden by Furry's theorem, however, but its square isn't, so there is nothing in the theory that forces [math]\mathcal{M}=0[/math].

Yeah, but light bouncing off a green surface will always have the same frequency, regardless of luminosity. The cone cells are able to identify a color so long as they're being activated even if at the lowest intensity, yet the difficulty in telling colors apart starts mounting up far before the green-sensitive cones cease being activated. It's because that particular information gets lost in the encoding.

subtract [math]c_2x^2 = x^2[/math] from your terms to obtain [math]c_1x + c_0[/math]: [ 4, 6, 8, ... ] and you can now solve for [math]c_1[/math] in a similar manner. Ultimately you get [math]x^2 + 2x + 2[/math]

It's not an integration method, it is simply inferring a polynomial from a discrete set of values, something firmly in the realm of just algebra, though you might use reasoning from calculus to accomplish it. Taking the successive differences does *not* immediately give you the values of the derivative, it may vary by a constant as you recognize. Your problem is that when you integrate [math]2[/math] and get [math]2x + C[/math], you try to infer C from [math]f'(1) = 5 = 2(1) + C[/math], but again, the successive differences of the original sequence [5, 7, 9, 11, ...] does not necessarily correspond to [f'(1), f'(2), ...].

What I tried to express was that the way to adjust the values by the necessary constant would be to instead take the [math]x^2[/math] term that you have already inferred and subtract it from the initial values. Comprehensive step by step:

[math]f''(x) = 2[/math] from the fact that the successive differences taken twice results in all 2s.
[math]f'(x) = 2x + c_1[/math] integrating above
[math]f(x) = x^2 + c_1x + c_0[/math] integrating above
let [math]g(x) = c_1x + c_0 = f(x) - x^2[/math]
[math]g(1) = f(1) - 1^2 = 4; g(2) = 6; g(3) = 8 ...[/math]
[math]g'(x) = 2[/math] from the fact that the successive differences take once results in all 2s (same as first step)
[math]g'(x) = 2x + c_0[/math] integrating above
[math]f(x) = x^2 + 2x + c_0[/math]
[math]f(x) = x^2 + 2x + 1[/math]

First of all that's not what "virtual particle" means. Virtual particles are just particles with off-shell momenta, which does [math]not[/math] at all imply negative mass.
Second of all that's one of the worst interpretations of an attractive potential I've ever seen. If [math]H[/math] is the Hamiltonian describing the dynamics of a particle with negative mass then it's no longer globally positive-definite and gapless points appear. These gapless/level-crossing points denote regions in parameter space where the spectral theorem fails, so you don't have a global Fock representation. Best you can do here is get a Fock space on each connected patch (i.e. local trivialization of the vector bundle of Fock states) with unitary transition functions between them. This introduces the possibility of the appearance of topological defects at the gapless points which were [math]not[/math] present in the original potential.
Of course if you ignore these considerations and just fractionalize the potential then you'll get the same effective interaction back. The problem here is the "multi-valuedness" of the vacuum sector due to the topological defects introduced. A globally-defined cyclic symmetric vacuum is an axiom of QFT that is necessary for the boundedness and definiteness of the number operator, so fractionalization may lead to you not being even able to (globally) count how many particles you have, which is stupid when the original potential isn't itself topological.

Pythagoras.

z^2=x^2+y^2
=> z = sqrt(x^2+y^2)
= sqrt(x^2+(y/x)^2*x^2)
= sqrt(x^2*(1+(y/x)^2))
= x*sqrt(1+(y/x)^2)
=> z/x = sqrt(1+(y/x)^2)
=> z' = sqrt(1+x'^2)
IOW, it's Pythagoras with the common scale factor cancelled out. z^2=x^2+y^2 => (k*z)^2=(k*x)^2+(k*y)^2.

The other one is the same but solving for one of the perpendicular edges rather than the hypotenuse.

Hey guys. I'm currently working on how to separate p points in n dimensionsional space into n groups. Say, i have 1000 points in 3D space, so each group should have 333 points (the last one 334) and i'm using a hyperplane represented by a normal vector (set in Origin) to do the separation(as the dot product is computationally cheap).

My problem now is how to update the normal vector in a way, which is usable in every dimension. I more or less use perceptron learning rule to do this, but maybe there is a better way, as this is for now not reliable enough.

Ya'll are familiar with GDB I'm guessing right?

I'm used to debugging in a general sense, but am relatively new to gdb. HOW THE FUCK DO YOU GET IT TO ACTUALLY DEBUG?

It just keeps printing the fucking hex value at each breakpoint. If I set breakpoint to main, hex. Next line? Hex. It doesn't trace the code at all.

How can I get this piece of shit to actually display the line of code it is tracing? The hex is neat and all but I'm trying to practice some hacking challenges and need to know the context with what I'm working with.

On an additional note, any reason why setting the breakpoint to buffer would trigger a segmentation fault? The buffer is clearly called in the code correctly (as I can execute the program okay, and do various means of testing what is in the buffer). I figure this is probably related to the issue of GDB not tracing the code, so it has no idea when buffer is called.

I already made sure that the directory of both the c code and compiled code are included in GDB. I compiled both in the same directory with the same name, so have no idea wtf is causing this weirdness.

No, unless it's a polynomial.
What you can do, tho, is give upper and lower bounds on the number of zeroes.
If you find a point whose value is zero, then for any other point to also have the value zero, the derivative needs to zero in between them (this is Rolle's theorem.) You can also take derivatives and consider where the function is increasing or decreasing to obtain these upper bounds (i.e. if the function is positive at a, and the derivative is everywhere positivo on a's right, then there are no derivatives there, etc).
For lower bounds, you're basically stuck with Bolzano.

I'm learning about lagrangian multipliers to solve constrained equality optimizations, like: [math]f(x, y) = -(x^2 + y^2)[/math] subject to [math]g(x, y) = x - y = 0[\math].

So, the answer is the set of points that satisfy both [math]\nabla f = \lambda \nabla g[\math] and the equality constraint. However, we also need to consider the critical points of [math]f[\math] that just so happen to fall into the constraint, right?

The things is, these points actually belong to [math]\nabla f = \lambda \nabla g[\math], since we can just take [math]\nabla = 0[\math]. So really, we are including them after all. But they wouldn't be considered at all if our equation was [math]\lambda \nabla f = \nabla g[\math]! So that's surprising to me, since it means that the fact that the lambda is on the RHS is somewhat important, since it sweeps under the rug a few corner cases.

Look up geometry distributions, they should be useful.

I'll try to reason it out though.

A first step to make the problem easier is fixing the number of throws (which sounds random, but fixing variables can often be useful). So, ask yourself, what's the probability of getting heads at least once in K throws? That's way easier, right? Since it's one minus the probability of getting tails K times in a row.

So, you can start at K=1, calculate the probability of getting heads at least once, and then keep going with higher valued Ks until you hit 90%.

Maybe there's a more compact solution, but that's what I got.

No, the intuition is backwards.
There is a function f, and it has a restriction to the constraint set. When the constraint set is nice, we can compute the critical points of the restriction of the function inside the constraint set, and some of these won't be critical points of the entire set.
Of course, if it's a critical point of the "entire" set where the function is originally defined, it's also a critical point of the constraint set.
The condition on the gradients basically translates to critical point inside the constraint, but the full explanation is long.

No. Classical fermions are sections of a spinor bundle whose spin structure is inherited from irreps of the central extensions of [math]SO(1,3)[/math], which contains two copies of the conventional "spin" group [math]SU(2)[/math]. One copy is the "usual spin"/helicity sector, while the other is the "fictitious spin"/charge sector. The -1 eigenspace of the latter of which is spanned by precisely the antiparticles. Fermion fields as a section into the associated vector bundle automatically takes into account the two sectors.
In fact, if the fermion is in addition massless then we have a chiral operator [math]\gamma_5[/math] decomposing the charge sector; this is where Weyl fermions come from. This decoupling between the charge and spin sectors allows us to move spins around independently of its charge copy, which is why Weyl fermions are the ones responsible for the chiral anomaly.

I've been looking at the /sci/ wiki for book recommendations and whilst it has been quite helpful it doesn't seem to suggest an order you should approach the topics in.
For context, I didn't study mathematics at university and I want to expand my knowledge of it. I'm most interested in learning the "core" subjects (subjects which many other subjects depend on) and then potentially build from there in the future.

Let y = smallest natural in the image of f greater than e (one must exists because f goes to infinity)

Let x = f inverse (y)

y > 1/e
1/y < e

Therefore 1/f(x) can be made arbitrarily small (hence it goes to 0)

Hey guys could you please provide some guidance/direction. I'm writing up a lab for an electronics experiment. Created several circuits (open, short, loaded) and measured the voltage at all the resistors with a multimeter and then did separate calculations (using nodal analysis, Thevenin's, superposition, etc) to work out the voltage at the same resistors. The voltages are slightly different. Is there any good reading material out there that I can use to write up a good conclusion for exactly why this happened? Something that goes into good detail that I can reference.

The theoretical voltage predicted by Kirchhoff, Thevin, superposition, etc. should all be exactly the same unless you are doing something wrong. If the experimental value is differing from that unique theoretical value, it's likely related to what this anon >>11343379 said. Also, remember that the resistors have pretty wide tolerances on them, usually like 5-10%, sometimes even up to 15% error from the color code value printed on their side. Lastly, it's a pretty tiny effect for what you are doing, but the resistance of a single resistor will definitely change with temperature and mechanical stress and all that.

= (b^{mq + np})^{1/nq} \\

Now when the 1-form [math]\omega_x \in T^*M[/math] dual to [math]V_x[/math] is exact for all [math]x\in \mathbb{R}[/math], the DE is said to be exact.

>assume the velocity varies linearly
This tells you that the fluid is Newtonian. What Newton noticed is that many fluids (at low Reynold's numbers, at least) satisfy the property that [math] \tau=\mu\frac{\partial u}{\partial y} [/math]. Now, we have a no-slip boundary condition. This means that the relative velocity between the water and the plates wherever they interface is zero. We can now say that
[eqn] \frac{\partial u}{\partial y}=\frac{\Delta u}{\Delta y}=\frac{u}{t} [/eqn]
where t is the thickness of the water between plates. [math]F=\tau A[/math] is correct. The middle plate isn't accelerating so the force applied to it is equal to the viscous force that opposes motion (keep in mind there are two interfaces with the viscous fluid). So:
[eqn] F=2F_{visc}=2\tau A=2\mu\frac{u}{t}A [/eqn]
Rearrange and plug in:
[eqn] u=\frac{Ft}{2\mu A}=\frac{0.02\times0.02}{2\times8\cdot10^{-4}\times0.2\times0.3}=4.167\ \text{ m/s} [/eqn]

No. The analytical solution to [math] y'-y=x [/math] is [math] y=ke^x-x-1 [/math] where [math] k [/math] is an arbitrary constant that is determined by whatever your initial condition is. The initial condition can be anything. If [math] y(0)=1 [/math] then [math] k=2 [/math]. So the function you are approximating by Euler
s method is actually [math] y=2e^x-x-1 [/math]. (The exponential part of y is called the homogeneous portion of the solution, and the rest is called the particular part of the solution, for what it's worth.) Of course, you don't actually need to know this to use Euler, but it helps if you are trying to double-check your work.

1. What term means the inverse of entropy? That is, something where saying it's "higher" is the same thing as saying that entropy is "lower".

2. Is it accurate to say that all particle interactions are determined by many different equilibriums that all have priority at different energy levels?

Is it necessarily true that an invariant subspace S of a linear operator T is also an invariant subspace of its adjoint T*? I know it holds for finite dimensions by looking at the matrix of T.

I just worked it out with pen and paper in a couple of minutes:

>1.1
>1.2
>1.3
>1.5

These allow for all the answers while also allowing for a possible 2.3, which did not appear in his sample.

If we need to find numbers which ONLY give the results listed though.. pls help.

What bottlenecks how much energy the brain can use in a day? Is there a general "pool" of energy that all of the body can use, and the brain draws from the same place as, for example, the muscles?

Hey guys, idiot question here.

Does fast moving air actually cause the air there to be lower pressure? Like if i get air moving real fast in some spot, could i get it down to like 0.5 atmospheres of pressure?

Okay, so imagine a solar updraft tower that is designed to make air moving through its base to be moving as fast as it possibly can, then you put that over sea water, then you use metal "sails" to be heated by the sun and then channeled down into the water, and at the top of the solar updraft tower we put nets to catch the air as it rides past and then drips down into a reservoir. The point of passing air over the surface of the salt water as fast as possible is to lower the air pressure and allow evaporation at a lower water temperature. The entire system uses no electricity, just heat from sunlight. The purpose is desalination.

Is this a stupid idea?
