Graduate How can I prove Minkowski's inequality for integrals?
I need to proove the Minkowski's inequality for integrals. I am taking a course in analysis. [ int(f+g)^2 ] ^(1/2) =< [int(f^2)]^(1/2) + [int(g^2)]^(1/2) now we are given that both f and g are Riemann integrable on the interval. So by the properties of Riemann integrals, so is f^2,g^2... -

Potential energy and electrostatic forces
the problem is that i don't know the formula of the potential energy when we are dealing with charges :( i know E=mgh where mg is the force and h is the distance. If we put F (coulomb force) to be the force in this problem, and r? to be the distance, and then we integrate it??it still...- A_I_

Potential energy and electrostatic forces
show that the potential energy due to electrostatic forces of uniformly charged sphere of radius R and total charge Q is: 3Q^2/5R i don't even know how to start?? i really don't want to hate physics:frown: :frown: :frown: i was reading through in my textbook and they only gave...- A_I_

Redshift and Velocity: Deriving Expression & Determining Velocity Direction
A 14.4 KeV photon from 57 Fe is red shifted as it rises from a sourceat ground level to an absorber placed at the top of a tower of a height of 20 m because it has to expend energy to climb the gravitational potential. Derive an expression for thered shift as a fraction of the energy of the...- A_I_

Find Derivative of f(2x): f'(x) = x^2
for the first part, that's what i was trying to tell him, that we only use the chain rule when we have a multivariable function, which is not the case. As for the second part, i am not sure about it, because i know you can only use the chain rule with multivariable function. Did u consider x...- A_I_

Find Derivative of f(2x): f'(x) = x^2
what do you exactly want to know? do you want an example of the chain rule? what you wrote: f(x)= g(r(x)) is (gor)(x) and is different from the chain rule. do you have an im?- A_I_

Find Derivative of f(2x): f'(x) = x^2
the chain rule is used when u have: f(x,y) and x=g(t) and y=r(t) but since your f and your u are both functions of x, thus you can not use the chain rule and you can not say: f'(x) = (dy/du)*(du/dx) ok?- A_I_

Find Derivative of f(2x): f'(x) = x^2
your mistake was taking partial derivatives u write f'(x) = dy/dx = (dy/du)/(du/dx) since y and u are both functions of x u can not apply the partial derivative (the chain rule formula)- A_I_

Find Derivative of f(2x): f'(x) = x^2
hehe good my method was simple: f'(2x) = x^2 --> f(2x) = x^3 / 3 we multiply the denominator and numerator by 8 --> f(2x) = 8x^3 / 24 ---> f(2x) = (2x)^3 / 24 ---> f(x) = x^3 / 24 --> f'(x) = x^2 / 8- A_I_

Find Derivative of f(2x): f'(x) = x^2
u have f'(2x) = x^2 first find f(2x) and try to write it as a function of (2x) and then after u do that substitute x for 2x you therefore find f(x) finally derive it and you obtain f'(x) does it make any sense?- A_I_

Solving Very Hard Integral g(x) - Joe
g(x) is a function of x that we do not know its form. y(t) =(1/2) integral 0-->t [ sin(2t-2x)*g(x) ]dx i tried to use integration by substitution and by parts but the problem is that g(x) has an unknown form. the actual problem is that y" +cy' +dy = g(t) y(0) = y0 y'(0) = y'0...- A_I_
