Posted by AM4R on 08 November 2006 - 10:40 PM in Mathematics

yeah I thats what i thought but it says in the question to use the substitution.

#90835 Substitution

Posted by AM4R on 08 November 2006 - 10:01 PM in Mathematics

Heres another question im stuck on!! Can anyone help?

use the subst. x=4sin t to evaluate the definite integral:

(integration sign with 2 at top of it and 0 at bottom) x+1/square root 16-x^2

i think that might be hard to read

Thanks

#97074 Stuck help

Posted by AM4R on 11 May 2007 - 05:05 PM in Physics

Im stuck on these questions. Can someone help?

1. An alpha particle with velocity of 2 x10^6 is fired at a target of gold foil in a vacuum. The mass of the alpha particle is 6.7 x 10^-27 and the atomic number for gold is 79.

Calculate the distance of closest approach.

2. r^3 = Gm/4pie^2 (T^2)

The orbital period of a geostationary satellite is equal to the period of rotation of the earth about its axis.

Calculate

the height of the satellite above the earths surface.
the speed of the satellite in its orbit.

Thanks

#81834 Standard Algorithms

Posted by AM4R on 26 May 2006 - 12:13 PM in Computing

sure,

Finding min

Set first to lowest in list
repeat
if next in list<min
make min = next in list
found_at=counter
until end of list
write minimum

Finding Max

same as above but change min to max, and < into>

Counting Occurences

target = 'random'
counter = 0
repeat
if next in value = targer
then counter = counter + 1
until end of list
if counter = 0 write'not found' (<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<linear search up to here)
write counter

I think thats what you wanted

EDIT: just typed that for nothing, lol

#81134 Quick Facts

This is one of the summary sheets I have written for myself and thought I would share it with you

In equilibrium reactions
* low temperature favours the exothermic reaction
* high pressure favours the reaction where less gas molecules are formed

If in an equation you see H O (g) you need to be aware that the temp. must be above 100 degrees as it it normally liquid !!

Water and Ammonia are polar (although I think they shouldn't be!!)

All ionic compunds are solid at room temperature

"Like dissolves like" - why alcohol and water mix (both polar covalent) and why oil (covalent) and water(polar covalent) don't mix.

Kevlar is an aromatic polyamide and contains hydrogen bonding

Giant covalent Network- Silicon dioxide(sand/glass), diamond

All fats are esters

One mole of any gas, under the same temperature and pressure, has the same mole of any other gas.

Volumes of gases are proportional to the number of moles present.

Nice one Pammy!

Cheers Khalid. Here are some photos from Barcelona last week: http://ed.facebook.com/album.php?aid=20209...157&id=61001455

barcelona is a brilliant city, probably one of favs if not my fav. Sagrada familia and park guell are amazing. So is La Ramblas, the big man street with all the trees! Night life is good too.
