    Solve 2^3x=7^(x+1): Logarithms Solution

    I've arrived at \frac{3x}{x+1} = \frac{log7}{log2} I'm not sure how to progress. What should I do next? Thanks,

    Change in flux of a transformer

    Hello, As I understand, a simple transformer works by using the Input AC in the primary coil to generate magnetic field in the iron core, which then generates an AC in the secondary coil. My question is: how does this process change the voltage? I've searched for answers on other websites but I...

    Word Mac 2011 Section Break Difficulties

    Hello, I am having troubles ridding my research paper of this thorn in my side: It is a rather random line of dots. I have tried everything in my power to remove it, but to no avail. I am, for some odd reason, unable to highlight it. Furthermore, temporarily deleting the surrounding...

    Closed ended tube resonance problem

    I believe an antinode at each end, making it an open ended tube. L = \frac{n}{2}\lambda L is therefore 6 m, and velocity is therefore 7200 m s-1 Is this correct? Thanks,

    Closed ended tube resonance problem

    Homework Statement In class a 3 m long aluminum bar was made to resonate by clamping it at a node in the centre of the bar. The frequency heard was 1200Hz. Homework Equations L = \frac{n}{4}\lambda v = f\lambda The Attempt at a Solution Knowing that L is 3, we can...

    What is the significance of the Jeans length in cloud collapse?

    Hello, As I understand, the following formula describes the Jeans length. \lambda_j = \sqrt\frac{15k_BT}{4\pi G \mu P} Where \mu is the mass per particle. Forgive me if this question may come across as relatively stupid, I imagine that each of the particles within the cloud...

    What is the Connection Between Quasars and Black Holes?

    Radiation emission is triggered by compression of the materials falling into the center by gravity. The properties of the central object dictate the frequency range of this radiation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accretion_disc

    A good beginners Physics book?

    It really depends on how deep you want to dive into the Mathematics. If you're seeking a textbook that is primarily conceptual with background mathematics, then look into Conceptual Physics 11th Ed. by Paul G. Hewitt. If you're into the more mathematical aspect of physics, check out the...
