    Mathematica How can I get my ListPlot to go from {x,-10,10} on x?

    I may be wrong, but I don't think that's my problem, I think it may be further back in my code as when I print values of f, they are already in a list, I'll play around and see what I can find

    Mathematica How can I get my ListPlot to go from {x,-10,10} on x?

    I've been trying to do this but I think the issue is my code isn't quite {x1,y1},{x2,y2} etc, I have several values for each x

    Mathematica How can I get my ListPlot to go from {x,-10,10} on x?

    It doesn't get an error per say, but the graph it spits out is wrong, if I look at just one o I get a 2 sets of data plotted (or so it seems) one that's a straight line going from -10 to 10 in y (no idea why) and then roughly the right shape of the graph for f, but x now goes from 0 to 42.

    Mathematica How can I get my ListPlot to go from {x,-10,10} on x?

    Thanks for your reply! I tried that but due to my list being effectively a list with 21 elements, with 15 in each element, it can't be done simply it seems, I think I need some tricky syntax

    Mathematica How can I get my ListPlot to go from {x,-10,10} on x?

    I have some code that is basically taking a range of energies, putting them into some recurrence equations and solving, and then I want to plot the results. \[HBar] = 1; m = 1; Do[Energy[z] = 0.5 + 5 z, {z, 0, 14}] Table[Energy[z], {z, 0, 14}]; Do[Entot[n, o] = Energy[o] - \[HBar]*\[Omega]*n...

    Show particles are scattered at right angles in the CM frame

    Thank you, I knew I could justify it using the information in a wordy explanation but I assumed the 'Show that' nature of the question meant I'd need to prove it mathematically using the angles in the CM, but it does make more sense to just explain. Thanks again!

    Show particles are scattered at right angles in the CM frame

    Homework Statement Suppose that in a fixed-target proton-proton collision, the two protons are scattered with equal energies at equal angles θ/2 to the beam. Show that in the CM frame, this implies they are scattered at right angles to the direction of the beam. Calculate the energy and...

    Find the Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors of 4x4 Matrix.

    Thanks for all your help, I managed to get all 4 eigenvectors using your help, I think I'm just going to try and remember to check them when it's something slightly tricky like this.

    Find the Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors of 4x4 Matrix.

    Hi thank you for your response. I saw before you had put 2 eigenvectors for lambda=1 so I was firstly wondering what that meant? I thought there is only one eigenvector to one eigenvalue? Also, is there a way of doing this without using row reduction? I haven't used it before to find...

    Find the Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors of 4x4 Matrix.

    Homework Statement X= 1st row: (0, 1, 0, 0), 2nd row: (1, 0, 0, 0), 3rd row: (0, 0, 0, 1-i), 4th row: (0, 0, 1+i, 0) Find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the matrix X. Homework Equations |X-λI|=0 (characteristic equation) (λ is the eigenvalues, I is the identity matrix) (X-λI)V=0 (V is the...

    Python How can I input a polynomial equation of infinite terms in P

    I have been given a task to create an interpolating/extrapolating programme. I have completed the programme for linear interpolation (2 points) but now must make it usable for 3 or more points, ie a polynomial of n points. I think I have the equation in general for a polynomial as it is an...

    Understanding the Integral Limitations and Conversions in Polar Coordinates

    How does y >0 lead to x^2 + y^2 = a^2? Using polar coordinates the integral came to be (Sorry for lack of latex) integral of r^3 between 0 and a , times the integral of cos^2(theta) between 0 and pi. That came out to equal ((pi)a^4)/8. Does this sound right? Also could not seem to come to any...

    Understanding the Integral Limitations and Conversions in Polar Coordinates

    Do the following integral: I= (double integral) dx dy x^2 with 0<x^2 + y^2<a^2 , y>0? Could someone please give me some guidance as to what the inequality means? Should I convert to polar coordinates so it gives me 0<r^2<a^2? Thank you.

    A system of 3 masses attached by springs is oscillating

    Yes that's right. I've spoken to course mates who have similar to me, I've changed it slightly now, but if you could let me know if the general gist is right, would be greatly appreciated.

    What is the resultant vector electric field at the point P?

    Homework Statement There are 3 charges, each denoted q, the first at (0,a), the second at (0,0) and finally one at (b,0). What is the resultant electric field at point P, (b,a)? Homework Equations E[/B]=q/(4πεo r2) for a point charge The Attempt at a Solution So I know I need to use the...
