    Measuring Alkyl Chain Cross-Sectional Area for Gibbs Adsorption

    1. Surfactant molecule is made from water-loving head and grease-loving tail (Figure 1). My question: How do we measure the cross-sectional area of the alkyl chain of surfactant? Do we measure it vertically (refer to GREEN DOUBLE ARROWS of Figure 1) or horizontally (refer to RED DOUBLE ARROWS of...

    Properties of cross and dot products

    why you think to use this fact : u\cdot v= |u||v|cos(\theta) and |u\times v|= |u||v| sin(\theta) in your arguments? I CAN'T SEE IT! this is my new argument :: yes v = w. u.v = v.u and u x v = u x w implies that u.(v-w)=0 and u x (v-w) = 0 implies that u perpendicular with (v-w) and u parallel...

    Properties of cross and dot products

    Homework Statement let u be a nonzero vector in space and let v and w be any two vectors in space. if u.v = u.w and u x v = u x w, can you conclude that v=w? give reason for your answer. Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution v is not necessary equal to w since u is nonzero...
