    Pulsed NMR: T1 and T2 Relaxation Times of Curing Epoxy

    I'm currently in an advanced laboratory for physics majors, and I'm conducting a pulsed NMR experiment. My partner and I decided that we we're going to measure the T1 and T2 times of Epoxy. The idea is to explore the relationship between curing epoxy and changing T1 and T2 times. We have results...

    Physics Osteopathic Medicine in High School Physics

    I'm pretty sure the way that they're defining "at risk" is: students who's educational experience could be affected by external factors including socioeconomic problems. I haven't been officially hired into the position yet, so as far as program details go and their selection process my...

    Prove Linear Independence of x1 and x2

    Homework Statement x1, x2, and x3 are linearly dependent. Show that x1 and x2 are linearly independent. Homework Equations After reduction using gaussian elimination, x1, x2, and x3 are proven to be linearly dependent because x1 and x2 are defined by x3 (being the free variable) as...
