Thank you all for the kind words. I think I'll just have to work on my time management skills and maybe reevaluate my priorities in studying. The councilors here at my university aren't much help, I'm on my own as far as advice goes.
Hello,
I'm a third year ME student, and I seem to have hit a major wall. I've been doing okay for a while, but now I'm struggling much more than I have been in the past. My GPA is dropping before me and even when I work hard, my exam grades tank. I'm a terrible test taker, and I feel it is...
The Mass Flow Rate in a water flow system determined by collecting the discharge over a timed interval is 0.2 kg/s. The scales used can be read to the nearest 0.05kg and stop watch is accurate to 0.2 s. Estimate the precision with which the flow rate can be calculated for time intervals of a.)...
Homework Statement
Two sites are being considered for wind power generation. In the first site, the wind blows steadily at 7 m/s for 3000 hours per year, whereas the second site the wind blows at 10m/s for 2000 hours per year. Assuming wind velocity is negligible at other times for simplicity...
That didn't work, but searched the error and I found out that there is an operator "." that you're supposed to use for multiplication.
x = [-pi: 0.01: pi];
y = (cos(x)).*(sin(2.*x));
yd = 2.*cos(x).*cos(2.*x)-sin(x).*sin(2.*x);
plot (x,y)
hold on
plot (x,yd, '--k')...
QUESTION:
Plot the function f(x) = cosx sin(2x) and its derivative, both on the same
plot, for π ≤ x ≤ π . Plot the function with a solid line, and the derivative with
a dashed line. Add a legend and label the axes.
Okay, so this is what I have so far in a script file...
x =...

Two capacitors, C1 = 20 micro Farads and C2 = 5 Micro Farads are connected in parallel and the resulting combination is connected to a 12-V battery. Find (a) the Equivalent capacitance of the combination, (b) the electric charge on each capacitor, (c) the potential...
An integral is just another way of finding area. i.e. the space underneath a curve/line/whatever. it's useful for more advanced calculations like volume of a solid with a weird shape and many, many more applications.
I wouldn't worry too much about these things. Math builds up to that...
I am very interested in engineering... I used to take stuff apart when I was younger just to see all the little parts integrated into simple machines. The only toys I played with were legos (lol until I was 14, actually). But as I delve deeper into school, I feel like I won't be able to complete...
