    Calculus Calculus book between Stewart & Spivak levels

    Hi, Are there calculus books that lie between Stewart (or Thomas) level and Spivak (Courant/Apostol) level? Thanks.

    Intro Math Plan to revise my learned math & start learning pure math

    Thank you. What about algebra and trigonometry (Stage 1)? Go for separated gelfand books or do you have other rigorous recommendations? Am really interested in rigorous books for algebra & trig. Any recommendation is appreciated to start plan instead of just thinking about book & waste time.

    Intro Math Plan to revise my learned math & start learning pure math

    Hello everyone, I'm planning to review learned mathematics from high school & start leaning pure math. You can reply to red colored text if you don't want to read full thread. My math level : Graduates as engineer 10 years ago. Got A in Calculus 1 & 2 (Those were single variable calculus), Got...

    Book recommendations (abstract algebra and number theory)

    @TheBill Thank you for your detailed reply. Appreciated. @fresh_24 Thank you for your reply. My request is specific. Basically a book considered as an introduction to advanced mathematics. In other words, a book considered as introduction to abstract math including logic, proof methods...

    Book recommendations (abstract algebra and number theory)

    Hi, For an engineer who graduated and finished typical Cal A,B,C + Linear Algebra + ODE, what book do you recommend to start reading to be a transition to advanced pure math subjects like abstract algebra and number theory? I did deep google search & concluded that that book supposed to include...

    Confusion about the equation of a line in space (vector form)

    If I plug a number for t i will get vector not point! Still confuses me. Put t=k, then i will get <x1,x2,x3> + <ka,kb,kc>=< x1+ka , x2+kb , x3+kc > which a vector going from origin to the line. Vector not a point.

    Confusion about the equation of a line in space (vector form)

    Hi, In my calculus book,I found this vector form of line equation in space (bold means vector): Given point (x1,x2,x3) lies on line L & v=<a,b,c>, then equation of line is : r = <x1,x2,x3> + t <a,b,c> with t any number. Now, my question if I plug any number for t, then result will be vector...

    Wrong value for the voltage across a capacitor

    So i substitute pi with 180. And yes you are correct, while calculating final answer i forget to include the "-" sign I have negative sign in my v(t), and there will (cos(something) - 1) which will give minus for sure as maximum value for cosine is 1, with the negative in v(t), answer must be...

    Wrong value for the voltage across a capacitor

    Homework Statement The current through a 100 microfarad is i(t) = 50 sin(120*pi*t) mA Calculate the voltage across it at t = 1 ms. Consider zero initial voltage. Homework Equations v(t) = (1/c) integral of i(t) from t = 0 to t = t The Attempt at a Solution Am getting v(t) = - 1.326 (...

    Thevenin Equivalent : Wrong value for Rth

    Thanks for you reply, I solved it using two different ways. (1) First solution : Taking 2 parallel with 6 & redraw circuit, solve it as shown in attach file. I redraw the circuit as our instructor said : " When taking two resistors in parallel, replace one of the resistors by the equivalent R...

    Thevenin Equivalent : Wrong value for Rth

    "Ignore the dependent current source which will just feed into the short circuit for the time being." Am not following you ! So whenever I have current source parallel with short circuit, I just kill the source i.e. making it open circuit? Explain pelase. Edit: Let me generalize my question ...

    Thevenin Equivalent : Wrong value for Rth

    Homework Statement The problem ask for Thevenin Equivalent for the circuit attached. Homework Equations Vth = Vab Rth = Req Rth = Vth / Isc Rth = 1 / It The Attempt at a Solution Already calculated Vth = 166.67 V. I've no problem with that. Already confirmed by textbook answer. However, my...

    Prove arccos(-x)+arccos(x) = pi

    What about differentiating arcos(-x) and arcos(x) separately and noting that the derivatives are the equal?
