    Nonexistence of the universal set.

    Yo. Wsup. I watched a video about three years ago where this guy suppossedly provedthe nonexistence of the universal set. I can't find it now but what he said (rather quickly) was that from Cantor, every set is a subset. Therefore, there is no universal set. 1) Is this valid? 2) RW...

    Finding the Unit Normal Vector at t=0: A Headache-Inducing Problem

    Normal vector (dot) Tangent vector = 0 usually if you don't care about the binormal ones.

    Compute Integral Using Jacobian Det in Polar Coordinates

    T: (x,y) to (theta, r) x = rcostheta y = rsintheta derivative matrix of T: t11 = -rsintheta t12 = costheta t21 = rcostheta t22 = sintheta detT = -r(sintheta)(squared) - r(costheta)(squared) = -r but the Jacobian should just be r and if you map T: (x,y) to (r, theta) instead of what I did then it...

    Compute Integral Using Jacobian Det in Polar Coordinates

    Homework Statement Determine the Jacobian determinant for "polar" coordinates and use that to compute the intergral . . . Blah blah blah that's not the point. Homework Equations (x,y) maps by T to (r, theta) or (theta, r) detT = jacobian The Attempt at a Solution Anyways, first I...

    Finding a Basis for Subspace in R^4: Linear Algebra Tips

    If the determinant of the matrix these vectors make is 0 then some of them are linearly dependent.

    Finding the intersection of subspaces, and addition of subspaces

    E + F = span{u,2v) + span{w,v} = au + 2bv + cw + dv = span(u,v,w) I think. Not comepletely sure.

    Calculating the Coefficient of Friction on a 4.8m Slide Inclined at 28 Degrees

    You forgot gravity. F = mgsin(28) - umgcos(28) = ma Solve for acceleration and then use kinematics. Proof: Friction = uN Normal force is gravity going into slide = umgcos(28) All movement is along the slide. The gravity component in this direction is mgsin(28) Try to treat gravity and the...

    Frictionless ramp question. Find angle.

    Only force on the mass is gravity, which is conservative. so Einitial = Efinal Ui + Ki = Uf + Kf
