    Relationship between translation and rotation

    so there is no such relationship and I should disprove statement?

    Relationship between translation and rotation

    no, i don't think there fixed pionts should be taken into consideration. should they?

    Relationship between translation and rotation

    Homework Statement Prove or disprove: Every translation is a product of two non-involutory rotations. Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution :[/B] I am not sure if I got the right proof for the special situation: A translation is the product of two reflections with parallel reflections...

    Is (-infinity, b) an event for any real number b?

    Yes, I know how to prove the third condition. ai=b-1/n as a goes to infinity. But what about the second condition? how should I prove that Ac is an event? Ac=[b, infinity)

    Is (-infinity, b) an event for any real number b?

    Homework Statement Suppose that the sample space is the set of all real numbers and that every interval of the form (-infinity, b] for any real number b is an event. Show that for any real number b (-infinity, b) must also be an event. The Attempt at a Solution use the 3 conditions required...

    Draw the graph of arctan((x-1)/(x+1))

    I'm not sure if the graph looks like that. Because the calculator gives a different image.

    Draw the graph of arctan((x-1)/(x+1))

    x approaches infinity and function goes to pi/4 that's the definition of a horizontal asymptote, correct?

    Draw the graph of arctan((x-1)/(x+1))

    is the horizontal asymptote correct? is there any other horizontal asymptote that I am missing? I got a graph like this, but I'm not sure if it is correct

    Draw the graph of arctan((x-1)/(x+1))

    when x=-1 arctan is undefined but as x approaches x=-1 (x-1)/(x+1) approaches negative infinity and positive infinity from left and right. Let (x-1)/(x+1) = t, then arctan(t) approaches pi/2 and -pi/2 as t approaches the two infinity is this correct? then there is no vertical asymptote?

    Draw the graph of arctan((x-1)/(x+1))

    I think the limit of arctan((x-1)/(x+1)) as x approaches -1 from the right is pi/2 and as x approaches -1 from the left is -pi/2, which means there is no vertical asymptote here but a jump discontinuity here right?

    Draw the graph of arctan((x-1)/(x+1))

    I am so far able to find the domain, intercepts, concavity and increase/decrease. But I am stuck at finding the asymptotes for the graph. I think there is no vertical asymptote or is there one at x=-1? I think the horizontal asymptote is y=pi/4

    Did the Pressure of a Monatomic Gas Change During Isentropic Heating?

    I got 0.316 and the answer is 3.16. thanks, I think I might have made mistake in the decimal.

    Did the Pressure of a Monatomic Gas Change During Isentropic Heating?

    Homework Statement A sample containing 3.65 mol of a monatomic ideal gas is heated from 289K to 458K, and the entropy remains constant. If the initial volume of the sample was 0.0980m^2, by what factor did the pressure increase or decrease during this process? Homework EquationsThe Attempt at...

    What is the change in entropy ΔS of the gas?

    Homework Statement Two moles of an ideal gas undergo a reversible isothermal expansion from 3.37×10−2m3 to 4.29×10−2m3 at a temperature of 29.6 ∘C. What is the change in entropy ΔS of the gas? Homework Equations pV=nRT The Attempt at a Solution W=∫V2V1pdV, I don't know how to use this...
