You will learn everything in a high-school calculus class that you would in a college calculus class. That said, I found university calculus to be much, much harder than high-school calculus. I never did homework in high-school, slept through class and got an A in calculus BC. I took college...
Homework Statement
Determine whether the given vector functions are linearly dependent or independent on the interval (-\infty, \infty)
\begin{pmatrix} t \\ 3 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} 4 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I computed the wronskian to be t-12...
Hmm. A friend is telling me that "The fusion in the sun produces radiation of several types, including beta positive and gamma in huge quantities" Is this just radioactive waste?
Thanks, I completely mistyped that. 3 should read opened rather than closed.
Just to clarify, the answer to #1 then should look like the following?
\frac{V}{R} = I where I is 55/150?

Assume that the switch has been closed a long time.
1.) Find the current through the inductor before the switch is opened.
2.) Find the voltage in the right resistor before the switch is opened.
3.) Find the current in the right...
I'm not a big fan of the right-hand rule; it always confuses me. The system I use, which works pretty well for me, is that since you're looking for the cross product, why not just take the determinant?
We know that F = q\vec{v}\times\vec{b}. For both problems, we have the particle moving in...
I was playing around with Euler's identity the other day. I came across something that seems contradictory to everything else I know, but I can't really explain it.
I started with
e^{i\pi} = -1.
I rewrote this as
ln[-1] = i\pi
Multiplying by a constant, we have
kln[-1] = ki\pi...
The text Evolutionary Analysis asserts otherwise. In general it states that the selection coefficients are generally (over 70% of the time) less than .02, (http://www.jstor.org/pss/2640707) but that most mutations are slightly deleterious.
My Biology text, Evolutionary Analysis, claims that survival to sexual maturity decreased in C. elegans that originated from a single progenitor and were kept in a benign environment to decrease selective forces. This is cited from a paper by Vassilieva in 2000. My book claims that this...
